Subject: [Leica] LCD Protector for M9

Greg the one I have on my M8 is marked Giottos. The model number is SP8250.
It is a sandwich of Schott glass. It has been on the camera for ~18 months
and does not have a single mark on it. My camera is in a half case and the
LCD has never been hit on anything. It does get cleaned almost daily (left
eyed shooter nose prints).
I never noticed any loss of brightness or distortion through this screen.
The M9 LCD, although the same size, is new and meant to be brighter than
that on the M8 too.
I looked again recently and I had trouble locating the same model. I found a
similar item on the Bay which is branded GGS.  The seller name was
goshotcamera.
It has four layers including 0.5mm optical glass. 2.5 inch size.
Both of these use only a very thin strip of adhesive (~1mm wide) around the
periphery. The new one says that it is #M double sided tape. If you look at
the shattered cover on the back of one of Tina's camera, I think it must be
a different type? Perhaps it sticks to the whole surface?
