That said, I damaged my 90 tele-elmarit because I was careless, and accidentally dropped a ball point pen head point first into the camera bag; it fell in a direct hit onto my front element. I now back cap my lenses when I put them into the bag, (shade on) face down. Though as far as I can see it has had absolutely NO effect on the image. However, I have NEVER had front surface damage on a camera I was carrying. Any damage to a lens has ALWAYS been a consequence of how I stored it.
