I leave mine off, to protect the lens I keep a clear filter attached at all times, it's cheaper to replace a filter than a lens.

Never mind walking around with it on - I take half my pictures with it on!
Keep meaning to get a UV filter and leave it on all the time.

If I am shooting then it is a pain removing it with the lens hood on.

Mine goes back on after every shot. I have regretted this sometimes when I want a quick shot and realise the cap is on. I know it only takes a second to remove it but if I'm not thinking and aim to shoot then find the cap is still on, sometimes the moment is lost.
