Hi Tom, Top rack seems to be fine for EOS lens caps. But if you are worried, you might be able to disable the "HEAT" dry cycle (a.k.a. Economy). It might also be better for the environment. Lens hoods are a definite problem. I think they should be mounted to keep their shape better. If I mount the hood on the lens, they block the front element. But if I mount them in reverse, they block the lens barrel. Would a two-wash cycle be better?
