Found the Ebay you are referring to I think 'Aspenofhereford' but not listing a 2.7" so have sent them an email to see if they have one, will confirm.

Hi Lilly,

If it helps Pentax market protective foils for their cameras, but typically not in 2.7 size.

Fuiji Film do, and I had one of these fitted to my K20D before leaving. They come in packs of 3 I believe, I also fitted a UV filter to the lens so I was fully protected before leaving Park Cameras.

Hope this is of use,

Roscoe.

Seems they are like hens teeth Lilly.
B&H in the US have them, but I'm not sure it is worth the hassle of trying to get it from them, unless you know someone in the US who can order it for you and will send it on.
I had a look on Dutch and German sites for you but couldn't find one here either. Every other size yes, but not that one .

Hi Lilly,

Just double checked from a previous post which Giottos screen protector I bought for K20D and it was the SP8300 (warehouse express catalogue number PZD78 )

Its marked as being 3inch but it fits on the K20D perfectly. No part of the stick on screen overlaps onto the camera body ie it fits entirely within (just) the black border of the camera LCD.

I choose it by measuring the actual dimensions of the camera LCD and using those to choose which screen protector. I suspect that the 3inch may be corner to corner of the glass but the Pentax screen size of 2.75 inch is the actual visible part of the screen excluding the black border.

Good luck
Bob

I can recommend Aspen of Hereford as a supplier

Unfortunately, they have replied and they don't have one either, will try Bob's route!
