Actually I stand with screen protectors at loggerheads: Mir at least it's never been able to apply a film with no air bubbles. In addition, a film degrades the image quality of the display felt generally. After I've seen some photos of desolate but trimmed displays the NEX 5N, I still wanted to make an attempt. The digiCOVER screen protector is significantly stiffer than other films that I know. Maybe that's the reason that I got them with no visible inclusions of air or dust on the screen. Since it also causes no deterioration of image quality, I find it perfectly!
