Re: Question About Screen Protector for Pentax K100D

2007-04-09 Thread Igor Roshchin


I don't have K100D, but I've been using *ist DS for almost 2 years.
I've been using a protective film. I couldn't find the right size,
so I bought a pack of larger ones - suitable for one of the Palm PDA's,
and was cutting the right sized portion using scissors.
Depending on the weather and usage, one can last for several months.

I think I may be overly cautious, but it doesn't bother me,
and it adds some protection.

I've been carrying and using Pentax DSLRs for two and a half years  
now, with no "screen protectors" on them. My cameras are not babied  
but they are handled with reasonable care and kept in a camera bag  
when not in use taking pictures. I've yet to see a single scratch or  
mark on the LCD of any of them.

The LCD cover is hardened acrylic. Aside from deliberately gouging it  
with sharp objects and pointed tools, or letting it bounce off your  
shirt buttons and belt buckle constantly, it should impervious to  
damage. I believe that the cover itself can be changed in a few  
minutes any way and doesn't cost more than $20.

Any kind of protector blurs what's on the screen and makes it mostly  
unusable to me. Or covers it entirely and hides it from view.

Question About Screen Protector for Pentax K100D

2007-04-09 Thread Paul
Dear friends,

I have just purchased a Pentax K100D Digital Camera about
three weeks ago. Would it be adivisable for me to purchase 
a "screen protector" for its LCD screen?  If so, does anyone 
have any comments on the advantages and disavantages of
the ones, which are currently on the market?

Best regards,

Paul
Louisiana.
