Screen protector for M5 ?

MainFrame — Mon, 12 Dec 2016 17:09:58 GMT

Hi everyone

I have been lurking on the community for a few years and soaking up a wealth of knowledge. For that, many thanks.

I use Larmor GGS screen protectors on my 5D3 and 7D2 and am very happy with them.

Now I've done something rash and sprung for an M5.

The M5 display measures 79x53mm and so far I have not found anyone advertising a screen protector for the M5.

Is there another Canon DSLR that has this same 79x53mm screen dimension?

Also, does anyone know if the Larmor GGS laminated glass product will work with Canon touch screens?

The M5 just may be a little too new. After market accessories are just beginning to appear. It's still a little early.

There is one company that claims to have a screen protector suitable for the M5. The company claims that one of their rigid glass, with 0.2 mm thickness, protectors designed for Sony Sony DSC-RX1 mirrorless cameras can fit the M5. Seeing how the Sony camera has a 3.0 inch screen and the M5 has a 3.2 inch screen, I would have question how well that would work out. Seems to me that they're just trying to be the first with their foot in the door.
