Depending on how big a piece of glass it is, I would recommend to take it
off. The front-ring of my TRV900 has snapped off due to the weight of the
WA-adapter. The ring is plastic, and held with 3 tiny-screws, so the wear
of a heavy front-element, made the plastic holes for the screws rip, and
one day I took the camera out of my bag, and the WA-adapter stayed in
there, which I found a bit strange ;-)
