Product Description
Pop-Up Shades are LCD screen protective covers, which double as glare guards. These sturdy, lightweight covers are easily installed (and removed), protect a digital camera's expensive LCD screen in the closed position, and pop up to provide easier viewing of the display in bright sunlight.

The cover easily pops up to form a little three sided canopy over the LCD to diminish glare, and folds right back down when you're finished. A camera grade, optically clear glass (itself protected with a clear protective film cover to prevent shipping scratches) continues to guard the LCD screen when the shade is up. Snap on covers literally hook onto the grooves in your camera, and stick ons are easy to apply and remove, and feature a no residue adhesive to keep the camera finish smooth and clean.

Pop-Up Shades differ from alternatives on the market, being made with hard impact plastic that snaps shut over the camera's LCD screen. Unlike other one size fits all LCD hoods on the market that fold or are designed with a bellows look, Pop-Up Shades are designed specifically for every individual camera model. Every Pop-Up shade snaps into place with the flick of a finger to shade the screen from bright light.

eFilm Pop-Up Shades Feature a no residue adhesive that will not damage the camera if removed and an optical clear glass to protect your camera's screen. The simple pop-up design allows for easy opening to block the glare. The two-part design enables easy removal of the shade while keeping the optical clear glass in place for protection. Color and design matches your camera model.

3 out of 5 stars pulled a switch - not what I ordered   September 4, 2008
I ordered the E-film Delkin DU2.5 Universal Pop-Up Shade for 2.5inch screen. The description said that they have optical class to protect the camera screen. Mine came with PLASTIC INSTEAD OF GLASS!!! Not very happy about this. The bad part is that I ordered them as gifts and they were all opened and can't be returned. Here is description (copy and pasted) from Amazons item page. No mention of plastic.

2 out of 5 stars Useful but fragile   August 29, 2008
The pop-up shade is useful to keep light off the lcd screen but it's way too fragile for the price. The outer shade clips tend to chip off and springs on the hinges suddenly fall off. Good idea for a product, just not very durable. Look for the sales!


1 out of 5 stars Save Your Money   July 9, 2008
I purchased this shade at the recommendation of my local camera store for $19.99. A bit pricey in my opinion, but I was desperate to be able to use my camera outdoors. Like other reviewers, with the Pop-Up Shade installed, I still cannot see images on my LCD screen outdoors. I've even reset the LCD to several settings in hopes of finding a lighting combination that would work with the shade. The fact is, I have resorted to cupping the camera in my hands with my forehead resting against the open shade so that I can at least see an outline of the image on the screen. Very inconvenient if you're trying to catch the moment! I have also had the issue of the cover slipping off of the camera and having the pegs break off during storage in the camera case. Delkin was very good about covering that issue under warranty. If I could return the shade and get my money back - I'd do just that. At any rate, I'm in the market for a camera with a view finder. Anyone want a slightly used Olympus?


2 out of 5 stars Great idea, useful product, but not built to last   May 19, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Like other reviewers, I've had the same experience with the little plastic tabs breaking off.

The product itself, does what it says, improving your ability to frame your pictures and see what you shot while outdoors by shielding your LCD screen. For those of us losing our near vision, this is great. For those of us without an optical view finder, this is very useful. But unfortunately, the tabs that allow you to remove the shade breaks easily, so the shade portion either slides around or won't stay on.

I've purchased two of the units, the first time, leaving the shade on the unit at all times, hoping that would keep the tab from breaking as others had already written about the weakness, but that didn't work, the pressure of my soft shell case caused the left bottom tab to come off.

On my second unit, I only slid the shade on when I was going to use it outdoors, figuring that would reduce pressure. However, just the act of sliding it on and off a few times caused the two bottom tabs to bend and break of.

If anyone connected with Delkin reads these reviews, please let your R&R department know there is a market for this device, but it needs to have this defect corrected.

Until then, I recommend everyone who takes the time to read reviews to pass on this product.



4 out of 5 stars Glare is reduced   January 7, 2008
Does make a difference with the glare. I like that you can remove the pop-up part if you don't need it, but the screen is still protected. It fits on with adhesive so make VERY sure that you have it on the camera exactly where you want it before applying pressure. Mine is covering the left edge of the screen by a smidgen.
