Can the camera image be EASILY seen in bright daylight?

No. You will see the bright daylight rear view through the mirror, so that the LCD image will be distracted unless you face-down the mirror to view the back seat instead. I think this is a common problem for all back mirror-LCDs. I now always use it with face-down, as I use the mirror only when I backing up the car.

No. With it also being a usable mirror, the image is not bright enough to over power the sun.

No, not EASILY. You have to move either your head or the mirror so that the bright scene through the rear window is not reflecting in the mirror. It's only a small inconvenience, though.

Easily? No. I have tinted windows on my van, and when I am in bright daylight I have to really look at the screen to see it. It helps to move the mirror so there isn't a glare. Then, when you shift back to drive, just adjust the mirror back to normal. Bottom line: it could be better, but it still works.

On amazon there is a 4.3 screen monator looks like a 4.3 tv it has RCA jacks and u can put it any where this one is the one I have on my dash it hard to see I put it on my cup holder and its darker there so I can see the screen display need to buy a camera and hook it up to your rev light this way when u rev the screen will turn on and show pic

If you have tinted windows and dark colored seats, you can see it great. My car has a light colored interior and no tint on the windows so I have to tilt the mirror down to eliminate the glare. Compared to a $450.00 factory setup my $50.00 setup works great with the limitations it has. The ideal solution would be to install a monitor into a dark recess of the dash so there would be no glare. The problem is then you are looking down and not able to see your other mirrors in your peripheral vision.

Honestly, this camera is purpose built for street photography in daylight or overcast daytime outdoor conditions. I've found it to be quite wonderful in that kind of lighting. In low ambient lighting situations, I've found this camera to be quite poorly suited.

Yes. This camera's screen brightness is pretty comparable to other cameras I have.

When there is decent lighting the image is great....this is not a night time or low light camera....there is a low light version but it has a narrower field of view..... I have 3mp hikvisions and dahuas, this is not as good, but still works well considering that it has built in mic and speaker....

Yes, the viewfinder is effective on a bright day, unlike the screen on this and other cameras.

You can adjust the brightness and the contrast. It also has 300,000 pixels resolution.

Hi Jack,Even when the sun is high and glaring directly on my LCD screen, I still can see my subject!Buy it. You'll love it.

Yes, images are quite clear and bright even in nearly total darkness. However, don't expect to see natural colors low-light conditions... at night the images are more black & white in tone.

Yes it is difficult to see in bright sunlite. But as Jamie W. answered, tilting the screen helps.

To me its acceptable now I have only taken pics in the daylight an they show up pretty good but you have to be pretty still when taking them ( tripod ) would help any more ?s feel free to ask

A bright room or light shining on to the screen really does show up. But, if you can mange the ambient light, it is a much better picture than the current LEDs available.

I don't have any answers, but share your concern about pictures in dark areas. I bought a Kodak EasyShare (DX 4530) a couple of years ago. It takes excellent pictures in bright light (outside). Indoor pictures are mostly crap. Are Kodak's newer cameras any better?

I'm not sur exactly about the types of light, but even in a sunny day, you see perfectly pictures or anything on you screen. For taking pictures, it's the best, you actually see what you're taking a picture of!

Depends how "strong" the sunlight . . . . I have used mine with direct sun on the LCD and it is clearly visible by adjusting the LCD brightness to +5 (use Q menu button then icon on bottom right for screen brightness, adjustable -5 to +5). Having said that I am not sure that would still be the case under mid-day lighting close to the Equator, I was shooting in the UK early morning in May.

You will get the best results in normal daylight conditions. Not recommended for recording in low light conditions.

Have not driven under those conditions but overall the camera has excellent low light capability. At night the camera view is always much brighter than the actual light level. I am very happy with the low light recordings.

I am amazed how clear and sharp the photos are at a distance of 100' plus during day light hours. At night it's a different story. The subject has to be fairly near to get a good picture. I would guess between 25 to 50 feet.
