I had thought with the M6 that it was essential to leave the lens cap on whenever the camera isn't in use due to the possibility of having sunlight burn a hole in the shutter. I'd prefer to leave it off, actually, but not at the expense of the camera shutter! I find it a nuissance to keep taking the cap on and off, especially since it can't be mounted with the hood extended (and so more often than not I neglected to extend the hood--not a good trade-off).
