I wish you would all come to a defintive conclusion on this topic so that I know what to buy
Well speaking for myself Hyram, its going to be
A) £6?? Expertshield (but website is very very SLOW & frustrating)
B) Giottos

Made a mess of previous reply, picked the dummy, getting very confused!

You can always buy a N*k*n. Most of their DSLR's come with a very robust lcd screen protector. And it just clips on the screen.That's one thing Pentax should offer also. Sorry for the swearing
Martin.
Thank u Martin, that solves the mystery! I thought I had seen that type before somewhere, that was the type I was after really - but not prepared to go that far!

I've now received and fitted one of these soft plastic protectors:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130161855418

It is very clear and easy to apply, and does not mark the camera at all as it sticks by vacuum rather than adhesive, BUT any grease you get on it shows up badly and is hard to remove.

Without a protector, the bulk of any grease can be removed from the camera's LCD screen just by lightly wiping your finger over it, then the rest easily with a cloth. Not so with this protector.

Therefore I cannot recomend this product - except perhaps to those with very small or totally grease-free noses!

However the versions for mobile phones are fine if you're not in the habit of getting the screen greasy.
Oh Dear, not good, thank you for sharing...

Eventually, I have a reply from Delkin:

I am sorry to say that the shade will not fit due to a slight
difference in configuration. I apologize for any inconvenience.

I always think the pop-up ones would be a pain, as if you wanted to check the histogram quickly, you'd have to pop the shade up, have a look, then put it back down again before the next shot. I suppose it would put an end to constantly glancing at the LCD, but for the times you want to refer to it briefly, it would just get in the way IMHO.

good point, didn't think of that!

Thanks guys for all the info., I have still not got a reply from Delkin with their pop up shade protector all in one. Like Clarky, I was more inclined to go for, but seeing as they have not had the courtesy to reply, re K10D, I think I will be going for the Giottos that Bob has just got.
I am not real happy to have sticky things on my LCD, so looks like it will be a Giottos, best compromise I think.
Merci beaucoup
Lilly

I want to buy digital cover LCD screen protector for my K10D,
I have seen the cut and stick types but also the hard rigid plastic ones, any recommedations please?

cheers, Lilly
I was looking for one of those hard plastic type also but could only find one for The ist*D.
I wanted it more for its shading abilites, as you know its difficult to see the screen when in bright sunlight.

I have sent Delkin an email requesting info for K10D, see what happens, quite like the idea of that one as wd be a great help in sunny conditions.

But, I am sure I have seen other photographers with DSLRs that have a rigid plastic protector attached to their screens, but can't seem to locate them at all.

Do you still use the 17-28mm ?
Mmmm, good : , I do painfully remember the hole it made in my purse at the time (not much change out of 500 quid, mental or what all those years ago!)
Like you it was never off the Z1, 'tis true it was/still a cracking lens and superb optics...I adored it, but, was so gutted when I realised the loss of wide angle with digital.
I have on occassion used it, but not as much as I should, especially since the 10-20 arrived, I must dust it off also I tend to get sidelined with new toys!

thanks, Lilly
