Does this case provide a shield over the camera lens to protect that glass from scratching (on the back)?

No, it doesn't. Though the case is thick enough where placing or sliding the phone on surfaces would not cause it to get scratched.

No but the lens is recessed in the case by about 2 millimetres. Shouldn't interfere with the optical image stabilization that way

No. The camera lens is exposed, however when the phone is in the case, the lens is inset, so laying it on a table will not affect it.

It does have a flap that covers the entire front of the camera, but not an additional lens cover. Bought this as a gift for my sister and she has been very pleased with it.

No the case provides a opening for camera... therefore it doesn't cover the camera

The case does stick out past the lens a little which offers some protection. But there is no clear plastic lens protection built into the case if that is what you are looking for.

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

No it does not cover the lense but it covers the volume and power buttons. The back of the case is elevated so when you set the phone down the camera lense isn't touching whatever surface it's on. Hope that helps!

Yes it does, however, you have to hold up the front flap so it doesn't fall toward the back covering the camera lens as you take the photo. It's a very nice case.

No unfortunately the lens is covered. I still use it all the time. I have probably been using it for 2 years and love 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.

The lens is exposed but there is adequate protection. I've had the case for over a month and my lens is still perfect. I hope this helps.

I put a screen protector on mine. I am hard on equipment like the extra protection. I had to make the hole for the camera slightly bigger but other than that I like this case very much.

There's no raised groove on the camera cut, so the lens can easily get scratched if it's not laid on a flat surface. Which is a bit of a downside for this case. The flash part is more protected than the camera lol, it's kinda weird. Yes it does have a high enough lip to protect the screen from being scratched if laid facing down.

No case here but can understand why some would want one. When off the lens is completely protected but the back screen is ALWAYS exposed. Actually, that's the only thing I dislike about this camera. Stick on screen protector?

Not at all. The camera lens and flash are exposed as no not hinder it. Its a great case

Hello, Sorry for the delay in response, but no the case does not have a protective clear cover over the camera.

The camera lens is well below the level of the case and is protected from scratches when the camera is placed on its back.

Yes. It protects the eye cup lens when the unit is mounted on the camera. The eye cup lens is unprotected from the other (camera) side, but it not an issue while mounted on the camera.
