I am not much of a fan of the stock Nikon BM-14 screen protector for the rear display that comes with the Nikon D600. I got rid of it on my D300s a long time ago, so I thought I would do the same with this one. The stock protector is soft plastic so it gets easily scratched and hazy pretty quickly, and can sometimes pops off if you catch the edge on something. It also fogs up underneath in certain circumstances, taking the rear display longer to clear up. But it is good to have some protectioon for the screen. Nowadays, they could probably just use Gorilla Glass just like smartphones, but they don't. So I installed a
GGS screen protector.
Unlike many of the multitude of plastic film protectors, the GGS screen protector is a glass protector that you adhere over the glass. It only cost me about $10 delivered from eBay, just about the same cost as a good plastic film protector. It is a 0.5mm thick optical glass with high (90%) transmittance within 5 other laminations for protection. It has high hardness to resist scratches, and has 3M double sided adhesive around the perimeter. Basically you don't even notice it's on your camera once installed.
To install it, The first step to installing it is popping off the BM-14 protector. Then you ensure there's no dust on the rear display glass, remove the adhesive backing and apply squarely to the rear display. It's that simple. The one I had for my D300s was two pieces, with another protector for the top display LCD, but this is only the rear. The top one is much more protected than the back anyways and needs it more. Much better than stock or film protectors, and it's invisible!
