Hello all,

I have a new GH1 and I want to protect the screen. I used GGS screen protectors in the past, but I cannot find a GH1 GGS Optical Glass Screen Protector. I think GGS discontinued the GH1 Glass Protector when Panasonic discontinued the camera.

I find these other names which I have never heard of. These other brands also market the screen protector as compatible with the GF1.

However, forums have stated that the GF1 and GH1 screens are NOT the same here:

What have all the new GH1 users been using? And do they fit? Do they look ugly?

I like the clean look with just GGS and GH1 printed on the screen protector.

Thanks in advance.
 
I've always just used stick-on film screen protectors. There's never any professional gear that's compatible with panasonics. It's a shame. There isn't even a compatible battery grip for the GH2.

Are you using stick-on film on the GH2 touchscreen?
Are there any issues with pressure sensitivity?

This is the one I use, it fits over the GH1 (2011) screen if you are careful placing it, but the screen does not 100% close flat after you put it on as it raises the level after it is put on a couple mm, not a major problem yet, just annoying.

Thanks for the reply.

I saw the eBay one before. I'm guessing the Fotga and GGS are basically the same. I was afraid that the glass screen protectors would prevent the screen from closing all the way due to thickness. How much does it not close flat? Like 1mm off? 2mm?

So are there any other GH1 users who have good screen protectors? I guess non-glass type ones. Please no Zagg stuff.

Pictures would be golden.

Thanks
