I believe this has been discussed before but my attempts to find an earlier thread were unsuccessful. What screen protector works well for the E-P3? Is there a GGS model available? Importantly, can you use a protector and still retain touch screen capability?

Thanks in advance for info and/or a link!

I am still waiting on ACMAXX to bring about their EP3 screen protector. My friend has one from Amazon or eBay I don't remember the brand but he can still use his touch screen with the screen protector on. Kinda like with the iPhone and touchscreen phone screen protectors.

Thanks, VinVin!

Any other experiences/recommendations?

My e-p3 came with some Vivitar universal screen protectors. You have to cut them to size yourself. They work fine, but mine came off because I cut it a hair too big and it got caught on my clothing while wearing the camera on a neck strap. I should put another one on but I'm lazy.

You can find universal protectors just about anywhere they sell electronics these days.

That one says:

"It snap around the LCD and it will NOT touch the LCD screen"
Does the touch screen still work with this type of protector? If it does, I'm getting one!

I bought a $4 LCD protector with no brand and I can still use touchscreen. The LCD performance with or without the protector is the same and it doesn't use glue

I've used a protector called screenpatronus on my dslr's and m43's.
They are easy to apply, easy to remove, cheap, clear and my E-P3 screens works fine with them. They're made to measure for different cameras.

A hard screen protector sounds nice but i worry about practical application. Funny that their actual site says the ep-3 ones are still in process and nothing can be bought yet... They really should update their site haha. I was more leaning towards those flimsy ones that stick on by static, kinda like the ones on my iphone. I'm no good with those universal ones as i cannot cut straight for beans haha. Maybe i'll just get the ones off amazon or ebay that my friend has. He told me it works no problem :D
