I was wondering - is anyone attaching these to their camcorders or leaving them as non-attached items in their bag? I haven't quite decided how to handle it yet and I was looking to see what other people were doing (I just got the cam 2 days ago, so still learning it :) )...

Well, so far I've just used my finger. It's annoying for the smudges, but I don't want that little stylus thing hanging from the cam. I haven't looked into any lens hood solutions yet though, but they'd have to be a bottomless hood for access to the buttons on the lower bezel.
