Canon put a really tough LCD protector on every 5D at their factory. You really don't need another. Skip Douglas

On most it's a very hard plastic, tough to scratch, but easy and cheap to replace (about 15 bucks). The 7D has a glass protector over the lcd so it's even more robust, however slightly more difficult to replace. a camera

You don't need no stinkin's protector on Canon DSLRS. Agreed, the protectors that come with the DSLRs are already easy/cheap enough to replace.
