Screen protector for 40D

Prophet · 20 Jun 2008 at 16:08

Looking for something to put over the LCD on my new 40D.

Any pointers on what the best protection is?

Don't pull off that initial plastic film over the LCD?

Didnt have any. Came in a lint free type bag then bubble wrapped.

Oh...
Then you can always hit the auction site for a 40D LCD protector for around a fiver.

i wouldn't worry. You will find it will take a lot of abuse to even mark it.

Don't bother.

The cover you can see is removable. A replacement is about a tenner.

Get a GGS one off ebay. Ive got one for my D300 and its great. Its tempered glass and it virtually bullet proof. Great buy.
