napawino Posted August 7, 2011 Share #1 Â Posted August 7, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) A question for you. Â If I get a Giottos Aegis LCD screen protector for my X1, will it still fit in the Leica case? Â This is the case, and it fits like a glove, and I'm worried that the protector might make it too thick to fit in the case. Â Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micko Dundee Posted August 8, 2011 Share #2 Â Posted August 8, 2011 I have the Giottos glass on my X1. The glass is so thin that I doubt very much that it will interfere with any case you use. You're only talking about adding 2mm of thickness to the LCD area. Any case it going to allow for that that. Â -Mike Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
businessasusual Posted August 9, 2011 Share #3 Â Posted August 9, 2011 I can vouch for that and will tell you that is saved my screen tonight. Arrived home after a trip away with all camera gear in a bag. Unfortunately neck strap of X1 was sticking out and it hooked around the fridge door ripping the camera out of the bag. The strap caught the camera which meant it did not hit the deck but not before the corner of the screen collided with sharp edge of fridge handle breaking Giottos screen. Sends shiver down my spine wondering how badly it could have ended had I not had one on. It came off on it's accord with corner broken - had spare on hand, now on and one big happy ending. Highly recommended!!!! (Have one on my M9). I buy them in 2's because freight is the cost of one alone. Have beautiful half case on mine and no issue with screen, its paper thin but more than enough protection. Glad it was not one of those self adhesive plastic covers. All that would have done was keep fragments of my screen stuck together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
prk60091 Posted August 9, 2011 Share #4 Â Posted August 9, 2011 sorry if i am hijacking the thread...but i have a question on the giottos- does it reduce glare or just protect the LCD? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucek Posted August 9, 2011 Share #5 Â Posted August 9, 2011 Which Giotto protector fits the X1? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
businessasusual Posted August 10, 2011 Share #6 Â Posted August 10, 2011 It may reduce glare fractionally but no, more for protection. 8270 is the size - fresh in my mind from taking it out of packaging yesterday. And I'll be ordering 2 more. :D Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
