Hi Minglink, is it the one for 60D or 5D? Because from what I saw in their website, they only have the one for 5D. And from what I remember, 60D's top LCD shape is a bit different (dunno which one is larger, tho).

(Unless they don't display the 60D one in their website...)

I am wondering why some of us have to resort to getting a screen protector for the top LCD screen when we hardly use it or rather touch it. It is understandable if we want to protect the back LCD screen as most of the time we have to rely on it and sometimes even to the extent of turning it at a certain angle when we use the live view and in the process may cause some scratches. But using the top LCD screen? Even if we do use it, what is the risk of scratching it? Very remote, I should say. I think some of us are getting paranoid about it. Fear not, I don't think there is hardly any risk of the top LCD being scratch. So, just leave it alone.

Hi Bro,

No doubt the risk of getting scratch is very remote. But it means there's still a chance of it getting scratch right? Picture this, if 1 day you wanna sell your camera and the buyer actually spot scratches on the top LCD how? (this is only an example and of course I hope all the bros here wouldnt have to be in that situation whether or not the top lcd is protected).

So whether or not to put on that thingy is user preference and I wouldn't use the word panariod here. I rather say we are just trying our best to protect our gear.

i only have a polycarbonate one for my main LCD, the one on the top LCD dropped off because the surface was curved and the adhesive wasn't strong enough.

i couldn't be bothered and just leave it as it is.

 

[Minglink]

I don't really care about my camera paint work but I do care about my camera screen. Its personal preference to protect it or not so let just be it.

Lol that was what I was asking Bro Minglink.... But hey you could use it (the drop off) to cut 1 yourself. Since the shape is already there, cutting it out from a film wud be much easier liao.
