pop Posted February 3, 2017 Share #21 Posted February 3, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) How did I know it would end up like this... Well, your question was "wondering if the LCD is the same size and therefore I can use my spare M240 protectors on the M10" and it was answered right away in the first two replies you fetched. To wit: the screen size is not the same. The protector for the M (Typ 240) will not fit the M10. If you can't stand the bycatch, you should not fish.

I just think it's funny how it's all so predictable;) 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter H Posted February 4, 2017 Share #27 Posted February 4, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Not sure. Think the post is responding to a trolling post. Meanwhile. Back to the original question. I did say 'don't want to debate why..but...' You, like Jaap, misunderstood Chris's post. He wasn't trolling. He isn't a troll. He was making a point about Leica's marketing. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Ricoh Posted February 27, 2017 Share #31 Posted February 27, 2017 An alternative for consideration: Purchase an iPad screen protector and cut to size. I've done it many times for my own cameras, and for friend's cameras. Purchased from Tesco costing £5, but saw the same thing in Home Bargains for £2. Each sheet of iPad screen protector is good for about six average size cameras screens. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps slightly inconsequential cost compared to the cost of the camera? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Ricoh Posted February 27, 2017 Share #33 Posted February 27, 2017 Lot of effort - they're about £5 on Amazon. Perhaps slightly inconsequential cost compared to the cost of the camera? About 5 minutes work, and if I make a mess when fitting, eg entrapped dust, which I hate, or bubbles, I can make another immediately. No waiting for another Amazon delivery. It has nothing to do with saving a few £s to offset the thousands spent on the camera. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttriolo Posted October 17, 2017 Share #34 Posted October 17, 2017 I tried the Giottos screen on my M10 but it was too small and covered up part of the menus, LV and image. After a bit of research I found a nice and cheaper alternative to Leica's "foil". It's from Expert Shield and designed specifically for the M10. It's not glass but it's a perfect fit and looks pretty durable. It has a lifetime guarantee and is half the price of Leica's. It retains the sleek look of the back of the camera too. Used a hair dryer to remove the Giottos and glue residue before applying the new screen protector. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve, great idea & works well - I can also create at least 6 of these (M240 LCD screen) from one iPad sheet screen protector. Minimal effort required IMHO. Not perfect but it does the job just fine.

On my original M9 it is scratched, but good to use, my backup M9's protector is cracked and I can't get it off! I tried a dental pick (explorer), dental floss, my fingernails. I just cannot get under it. Drives me silly. . Try a hair dryer for five seconds or so. Works like a charm on my M9 and Giottos screen protector when I’ve replaced it.

Stein K S Posted May 10, 2019 Share #37 Posted May 10, 2019 (edited) When getting my M10 I immediately bought Leicas original screen protector as I was used to having one (unoriginal) on my M9. However, what came to a surprise was how awful the Leica protector looked in the way it really ¨grained¨ the picture. Too bad to be used on such a nice screen! The protector went of immediately! I got some hopes when I heard that the SL protector was ¨better¨... but as spotted here in this thread, it turned out to be EXACTLY the same protector with the same size and quality... Now more than 1 year later I am getting confident about the Gorilla Glass. I guess Leica somewhere in there actually tries to tell us that we should not be using such stuff or... ;-) Edited May 10, 2019 by Stein K S Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
