Is it OK to apply protective shield over the front camera lens?
1482495
Hi. I didn't need to apply the protective shield over the camera lens because it fits perfectly. However, based on the clarity of the screen under the protective shield it would probably be just fine. As long as bubbles of air are not under the protective shield. Leroy

There is an adapter ring that must be screwed on to the front of the lens - it's a little tricky to get it to stay there. Once that is on you can screw on any of the filters. I only use the uv filter, mostly as protection from dust and scratching. There is a lens cover that fits over the added filters, but it is sometimes more trouble than it is worth, especially when I want the camera ready for quick shots. I have not used the macro filters at all, so can't say anything about them, or the polarizer or fluorescent filters either. And I couldn't make the rubber hood work - it shows up in the photos as rounded edges.

Yes and Yes, if you buy through Amazon, or any authorized dealer. The front lens cover is kind of goofy, as may comments here and elsewhere suggest, and requires that the lens hood be attached.

The glass shield has a self adhesive on it's back. Remove plastic and position on the camera, remembering you can only do this once.

Yes it is only a lens cover. When you change the camera lens, this cover is to protect it.

From what I can tell the outer covering is not the lens, but rather a UV filter of some sort. The lens itself is far behind the outer covering. So the lens is protected by default. I don't know the camera (yet) but I have been researching it a great deal and am knowledgeable about cameras.

Not a problem. There's a hole for that. Although you have to hold the cover out of the way of the lens.

The back cover comes with a very thin film over the camera lens as well as over the back glass. You would be hard pressed to even notice the film on the camera lens since it' perfectly cut. After install, I suggest you clean/rub the camera lens with alcohol and a swab. Doing so will scratch the thin plastic film, but not the glass since it's much harder. Then, you'll know it's there and you need to remove it. I had to rub pretty good to get the edge to lift just enough so some tweezers could remove the film. It's that tricky. After it's removed, your pics will look crystal clear.

You would probably have to take off the case, it all depends on how the lens sits over the case... I used to take mine off but I discovered that I could actually leave mine on while taking the photo.

Yes...looks like about a 1/8th inch protective area around the screen surface...same thing around the camera lenses...

Remember this protector is on the front only.. So the front camera still takes excellent pictures. ..I'm buying another one just to have....You can't tell the protection o's there..

You should buy the case made for it, as the lens is not flat, so it needs to be protected. An extra battery is always nice.

Alex, I leave mine on to because it helps protect the lens. It also helps me learn to make adjustments with light. This weekend I'm planning to test full sun photography with and without it. I'll let you know my results.

As long as the lens is damaged in a way specified by the policy (make sure to check for water damage, theft, etc) then it should be covered, along with the rest of the device. If the lens was purchased separately from the camera itself, however, it might not be covered.

Yes, it covers the off and on button so you should not experience this issue with the lens over on

It will not protect the lens as the screen protector has a cut out for the lens to prevent unclarity when taking photos. The screen protector will protect the back of the product from scratches.
