Ca you use the lcd screen to view pictures BEFORE taking them?

No. There is no live view available. The viewfinder, however, is bright, clear and sharp. I don't miss not having live view.

Yes, you can flip the screen so you can see yourself while you're in front of the lens. You can also put it on "timer" so you don't have to be holding the camera when you take the picture. Better than a cell phone for selfies.

No, it does not have an LCD screen. If you need to see what you are recording, you stream it to your phone.

Yes you can but it doesn't help at all. The camera is just horrible. I played with it for awhile trying to get some sort of quality picture out of it and it never happened.

the screen on the back of the camera IS your view finder. It does not have the small window view finder that the old film type cameras had

No it doesn't. But I had no problem using the screen. It's such a compact camera, it almost seems like a hassle to look through a viewfinder.

No, you see the potential shot in the digital screen on back. There is a small square that will appear in the screen where the camera thinks you are focusing on.

Yes. There is a viewfinder on the camera. There is a button to the left of the camera to switch it from LCD to the viewfinder. I hope this helps!

To turn off the LCD first hold the shutter button half way down like you would when taking a picture. Tap the Disp. Button once (This turns on the grid display). Now tap the Disp. a second time (This turns off the LCD screen). Yet tap it once more (turns the LCD back on). Note: When in review mode tapping the Disp button does a whole different set of functions! So always be in picture taking mode by first touching the shutter button.

Yes, the LCD screen will show "snow" if the scene is dark. The screen brightness can be adjusted by tapping a button on the back of the camera or by using the setup menu, but the speckles on the screen will be visible. When you review your photo on the LCD, you will see how the photo will look on a computer screen or when you make a print...the image in the review mode is much "cleaner" than the view you have while taking the photo. A "trick" to ensure your actual photo is noise free is to lock the ISO at either ISO 100 or ISO 200 in the aperture mode with the aperture locked at f/3.1. You will get a clean photo, even if the screen is "noisy" while taking the photo.

You can decide if you want to see the image or not. Someone in the store must have set it that way. It is nice to be able to turn it off if you know you are trying to save your battery, or are more concerned with taking a lot of pictures together and don't need to look at them until later. The feature is easy to turn off or on.

1) There is a view finder just above the LCD. You can always use that, even in bright sun light. 2) You may not have turned on your display. On the back of the camera are four little buttons (and one big one). The little button at the lower left is marked display. Push that to turn it on.

no. the LCD screen only. which is difficult to see outside, but that's the case with all lcd screens so not the camera's fault.

Yes you can if it's on video mode you just simply press the photo button on top though be sure to focus it so it isn't blurry. If you want advance options switch to photo mode and simply read the instructions from that point :)

It is not a touch screen. You view the pictures by scrolling through them using a button beside the screen.

Hello Mary. The LCD screen is the only viewfinder. I do not know if you can get a separate one. As for the memory, the camera has a small internal memory, however I do suggest that you get a memory card as you can only take a few photos before the camera is full.

yes ,that is why I bought mine, I love it. I don't like trying to strain the see the photos in the screen.
