Customer Evaluations

OK, I realize that as soon as you get into the Sony NEX method, every little thing gets fairly high priced... but... sheesh!... this is basically a thicker/stiffer version of a cell phone screen protector that you can get on eBay for all of a couple of bucks. That's definitely my only complaint: The price is considerably greater than I'd count on, even given the Sony NEX branding.
Now, as to the efficiency... while I have not attempted the other screen protectors as the other reviewer has, it does function just fine: It looks sharp, goes on effortlessly, adheres fairly effectively (but not so properly you can not take away it if you need to have to reposition it), and looks as though it definitely will guard the LCD from something up to about 25 grit sandpaper.
Whereas the instructions suggest lining up the upper left edge of the protector with the edge of the LCD, I identified that leaves the protector a bit to the left of center -- I recommend employing the left and correct borders of the LCD (which is ever-so-slightly narrower than the screen protector's transparent portion) and equalizing their widths to establish the true center.
I didn't see this item on Sony's internet site, but I believe it's a far better concept that the 1 they show that is a thicker plastic that snaps about the edges of the LCD: That a single doesn't seem to form an air-tight seal to the screen, so modest particles such as sand might nonetheless manage to sneak underneath and scratch the LCD, plus I do not feel it looks as good, adding a bit to the camera body's thickness. (With this protector the tallest component on the back of the camera is nevertheless the ridges on the jog dial -- even though by no even more than a millimeter, I feel!)

Definitely love it. I was making use of the thin stick on protectors, but they'd peel off each and every few days. This 1 fits ideal, stays on ideal and is crystal clear. Well worth it, in my opinion.
