Originally posted by creampuff It is easy enough to get fine scratches to show up over time (jacket zippers or belt buckles, putting down the camera LCD down, camera rubs against another lens in a bag, etc.) The small cost of a glass LCD protector is a worthwhile investment against inadvertent scratches especially if you're gonna have to sell the camera later. Plus it is dead easy to clean off grease marks and it doesn't degrade the view of the LCD. Only thing to note is the adhesive is very strong so some care is needed during installation. After that, it's fit and forget.
I can see thats use for some people, but here its not very often you will see me wearing a jacket
so no need to worry about zippers or buckles and in the camera bag my LCD doesnt touch any thing except the bag's soft lining and even if the lenses were touching it wouldnt matter as they are all kept in their soft pouch's in the bag.
