Answer:
Keep your lenses on. Taking them on and off will introduce the risk of getting dust in there, and it would be more of a problem. You should leave the lens cap on, so you don't get too much stuff on the lens. You should also use a UV filter, for protection. The damage goes on the Filter, and not so much on the lens itself (but this isn't to say that it's going to survive a sever drop, or accident). You should get an LCD screen protector to stop the likelyhood of getting scratches, those are very annoying. You can also buy a little brush or blower to clean the dust of the lens. they are not expensive in the least. Here are a few links you are going to find useful: http://www.amazon.com/GGS-Optical-Screen-Protector-camera/dp/B0013UUEOS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1235089508&sr=8-1 http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-7072-Lens-Cleaning-System/dp/B00006JN3G/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1235089540&sr=1-2 ( i had this, and it is very nice )

use a micro fibre cloth to clean lens and screen, a LCD protector is a good move, uv filters are good, mostly what nathan said

Always keep the lens cap on and, if needed, wipe the LCD screen with a damp cloth...less is more when it comes to maintenance. More people have ruined equipment with aggressive cleaning attempts than with neglect. Yes, you can leave it in the bag with the lens cap on but always keep it protected...depending on the bag. If the bag is large keep something soft and cotton around the camera. Good Luck!
