I just bought a panasonic lumix LX3 digicam... im kinda broke already. Are the screen protector , UV protector necessary? If i had the money i would buy both plsd an extra battery and a 16G memory card
so you suggest the UV lens protector but not the LCD screen protector?... this is just for a hobby. can i do without these two protectors on my cam?
thanks for all the replies. i would actually be using the camera in the desert (Egypt), as i will be working there for 2 years... so considering the sun in that area....and dust....
I never use a filter to protect the lens unless there is a specific reason at the time. There are a lot of drawbacks to having an extra piece of glass on the lens. However, with the LX3 it's a valid consideration since you can't just pop off the lens and stick a new one on. Once the lens is toast you buy a new camera! The filter will introduce the possibility of added glare that you will always have to consider. You will need a lens hood to shield the filter, and the hood is another option for lens protection. You may opt for the hood alone for the protection it offers. With any of these you have to use the funky LX3 lens Adaptor, I would pass on that.
Screen protectors depend on the protector. Most of the time it's just another thing in the way. A Zagg, as Fish suggested, wouldn't be too bad.
If I had an LX3, I would just get the leather case for protection and keep the lens away from kids fingers. I doubt if you bought it to cover combat in the desert.
