As digital cameras become more and more sophisticated, the LCD screens have also increased in importance.
Daily Care
What’s the single best way to keep your LCD screen in pristine condition? Failing that, an LCD screen is a relatively cheap repair and/or replacement at your local camera repair shop.
Replacing the LCD screen requires surprisingly little mechanical know-how and very few tools. Here is an excellent index of guides to replacing the LCD screens on various cameras, with an emphasis on the Canon PowerShot digital cameras, while here is a guide to fixing the swivelscreen action LCD screens that are found on many Canons. There are many products out there that can either prevent LCD damage or improve LCD performance.
One of the most useful accessories for LCD screen health is an LCD screen protector, which may be purchased either through the manufacturer’s site or through sites like this. Here is a very easy, very useful make-your-own LCD screen scratch protector project, where you cut it out specifically for your LCD screen, and can easily replace once scratched.
An anti-glare cover for your LCD screen is great way to optimize performance, especially under sunny conditions. Many cameras come with an anti-glare covering already attached, but if glare is an especial problem, then either buying or making an anti-glare cover with the same procedure as for the screen protectors might be the thing for you. Similar to this are LCD “hoods”, which can attach right above the screen to physically shade the screen from outside light and prevent glare.
