|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Broken LCD glass on D3S Debra L Rothenberg, Photographer New York | NY | USA | Posted: 1:22 AM on 08.22.11 ->> Just went to put my D3s away and noticed the glass over the LCD area that shows ISO, WB, etc is broken. I BABY this camera, and it's always covered so I have no idea how this happened. Is this something I should send to NPS or am I better off going for a local camera repair?  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

They are just held on with double face tape. The replacement cover and the double face tape (order more than one in case you mess up), were around $10 as per my recollection. Shipping your body will run more than that. Remove the broken cover (small suction cup or pry up with a knife edge. Clean off the residual tape. Place the new tape on the body. Make sure their is no dust on the LCD itself. Place the new cover on.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I just started searching to see if I can buy that myself and can't find it.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
