Re: D7100 Unboxing & Thoughts, Comparison To The D7000 & MB D15 Unboxing & Thoughts.
The D7100 doesn't come with a plastic protector as in D90, D800, etc.
It has a removable piece of cling film instead just to protect it whilst in packaging i guess.
I ended up sticking a protector from GGS for the D800 on mine, then quickly removed it when I saw it obscures the bottom of the screen.

Actually if most people actually read their manual, that plastic cover is meant to be used only when in storage. The plastic cover is not exceptionally clear, and if sand gets in between the cover the LCD, and some force applied, it is easy to scratch the LCD screen too.
I have gone through 5 camera bodies with that plastic cover and have always taken it off and leaving it in the box from the very first day. And for the recent D4, it did not come with a platsic cover as well, not even a cling film for packaging.
I put my faith in GGS, because sometimes I shoot in very fast paced environments, and sometimes in rough ones... This has happened to me more than once and each time the GGS took one for the team.
