Hi Everyone here,

Got Nikon D5100 this week, now i want to know what other Accessories should i buy other than tripod and Lens to protect my D5100.

Like whether i go for this
screen protector nikon d5100 | eBay

And what about this one
52MM UV FILTER PROTECTOR + LENS PEN FOR NIKON D5000 D5100 D3100

Is this of any use??



Thanks:razz:

Nope...both r nearly useless...screen protector is not needed coz its not a touch screen and u dont need to touch it again n again :D my 3 yr old dslr's screen is still scratch free.

And u dont need UV filters now...just keep cap of the lens and remove it only when using

In the Canon DSLRs (non touch screen models) the plastic on the screen is itself a screen protector which can be changed easily. Is it the same for Nikon DSLRs?

lol... I think it's better to use one. After all we have put lot of money in buying a dslr, 200-300rs is not a big deal.
