As awesome as the K1's screen is, I don't use it. There's now so many physical buttons that I only really go into the menu to format the SD card or add a User mode.

Does anyone know of a screen cover type of thing in the pipeline? A simple slab of plastic that I can put on top of the screen to stop it getting dirty or scratched. Any alternative suggestions are also welcome :-)

Have a look. I just ordered the K1 screen protector from the site.

And the spelling of protection...

You'll be kept back after school for this.

But you are forgiven by all of us here, many thanks for the heads up on this product range.

One also has to remember... for many here on the forum, English is not their first language, that's both me and the Americans covered nicely.

So all in all, I think we all do pretty well considering...

The superfluousness of vowels in 90% of written or printed English was pointed out to me by a colleague who was a professor of English at the college where I taught. Seriously, I have always had trouble with English - during grade school I took supplementary special training to correct my creative spelling (but I won). Additionally, I'm both a dreadfully fumble-fingered typist and an incompetent proof reader, so I'm constantly going back to a post made yesterday or the day before to correct something in the text.

I have to introduce you to live view, or atleast showing the histogram and warnings for blown out areas... they are tools that make your photography that much easier! A slab of plastic is not for me, but a nice cap, maybe half an inch wide and a transparent plastic or something, that would be awesome!
