I bought these skins when I purchased my T2i, without realizing the LCD screen on my camera is already protected by a layer of plastic. Even though I've read the Hoodskin is a little redundant for my camera I'm glad I purchased them as I really don't want scratches on the plastic either.
The best thing I've noticed about the Hoodskin is the natural oils from my nose touching the screen seems to be lessened and it's much easier to wipe away when it does show up.
Unfortunately the skins do not completely cover my LCD screen- they're not wide enough, leaving about 1/8" or so gap on one side. Skins are also a little tricky to get on, especially airbubble free, but just take your time.
Even without the full LCD coverage, keeping oil and scratches off my screen makes this a worthy purchase.

I wasn't happy with these Screen protectors.
they are very thin and very hard to apply to your screen with out air bubbles or wrinkles.
After you finally get one installed with as few air bubbles as you can get they are not as clear as the screen protectors for a palm pilot which I have been using for years, cutting them down to fit. They are thicker, easier to install and protect your screen more than these Hoodskins ever could.
And they stay on for ever until you take them off.
The hoodskins started coming off the same day I put them on.
As far as I am concerned this was a nice attempt to make something useful but turned out to be useless. I'll continue to use what has worked for me.

Comments about Hoodman HSK-3.0 Hoodskin LCD Screen Protector Film:
1. I have searched B&H website for an LCP protector for my Canon 60D. This item does not fit the 60D's LCD screen. The camera's display has a different form of glass, the plastic film does not cover the entire screen horizontally, and it is too large vertically. I had to cut it to fit on the longer side. I am not happy with it, but just purchased it for a short trip to a "sandy" trip.

Comments about Hoodman HSK-3.0 Hoodskin LCD Screen Protector Film:
I have no complaints because for the price, it's amazing value. It doesn't perfectly fit my T3i screen, and you'll have to cut it down (I think this is shaped for 4:3). But still the clarity makes up for it.
My friend had a T3i with a cheap dodgy cover she got with her grey market camera and it made it look ridiculous, so I gave her my second cover out of this pack!

I bought this screen protector to my Canon 60D camera, but it doesnt work, it is too short in one direction and too long in the other for the 3" LCD on the Canon 60D.[...] I'm very disappointed!

Comments about Hoodman HSK-3.0 Hoodskin LCD Screen Protector Film:
Little difficult getting all of the bubbles out. grab sticker broke off and I have to use a sharp knife to peel up one edge. Hasn't fallen off so it is doing its job. Accidentally cut it too small.

Comments about Hoodman HSK-3.0 Hoodskin LCD Screen Protector Film:
These work, very well, but their claim of "fits 3" LCD" is incorrect. They are too short in one direction and too long in the other for the 3" LCD on the Canon 60D.

Follow the instructions and this product will work as advertised. The film was a bit larger than my LCD, but was easy to trim with a razor blade and a straight edge. Crystal clear.

Works ok, just very difficult to apply without bubbles. I've used these films in many different applications, never had such problems. I think it's because these are on the thin side.

Comments about Hoodman HSK-3.0 Hoodskin LCD Screen Protector Film:
I buy this protector for E-PL2 camera which has 3 inch screen.
But it can't cover the glass edge beside the camera screen.
The Olympus E-PL2 owners should buy a bigger one (maybe 3.5inch) if you also want to protect the glass part around the screen.
Anyway, it's easy to use and looks clean.
