Is it difficult to see the screen when outdoors in the sun?

No more than any other camera...in fact, because you can tilt the screen you can adjust to an angle that gives the best visibility for the situation. So definitely better than a screen that doesn't tilt.

In the direct sun, yes.....but the picture screen on the back can be moved or adjusted to compensate for that. The picture screen on the back telescopes and tilts....hope that helps

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

I cant say yes or no, it all depends on the direction the sun is shining at you, directly behind me YES and it was hard to see my canon PowerShot screen too along with any LCD screen like my iphone.... This is a great camera, beautiful shots and I love the Optical ZOOM on it. The only drawback I have to add is that the LCD screen does not flip over completely for total protection, it only tilts for better veiwing so it is a must that you buy a screen protector.

LCD screens are all difficult to see in strong sunlight it is the nature of their design.

I've only had the camera since the beginning of december, so I haven't used it in a lot if sunlight. However, the shots that I did take outside, I was definitely able to see the screen. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Not so much. It will eliminate most of the glare, but the brightness of the sun can still make it difficult to see the screen.

If your wearing uv blocking sunglasses it's harder to see - I took it on a boat and was able to get great videos of dolphins in the water - so unless the sun is hitting you square on the screen, you can see it

I have mine set behind a window to be viewed outside. It's very visible except in the early morning when the sun is shining straight onto it.

Truth be told, I can't see a darned thing on the LCD screen in bright sunlight. I'm slapping myself in the head for forgetting to think about that - twice!

I had a little bit of a hard time putting this on because of the bubbles but I finally got it on with only one bubble and I can live with that. Yes you can read outside without a glare but when it is really sunny it still is a little bit hard to read. This was definitely worth the money. It takes a little bit of time to get use to the screen it does has a little bit different appearance.

I have never had any trouble reading the screen in any lighting , day or night. I wear self darkening glasses and the screen is always big and bold. Got 4800 miles on it at this time.

Yes! Obviously, you can't see it as well as in the shade, but it's definitely bright enough to see in the sun.

It is MUCH easier to read in sunlight. There is no reflection bouncing back at you from the screen, though when it is very bright outside you may notice a shadow replacing the reflection.

No, it has a bit of sheen to it due to the healing ability. That said, I have no issues reading my Nokia's screen in the sunlight.

It does make it easier to see in the sun but its not 100%. Depending on if you're directly in the sun or just a little bit. I love it it works great for me I am able to see just fine when in the sun.

The screen is glossy as it is a capacitive touch screen. The glare can be pretty bad, but on full brightness the screen should always be seeable. Just don't sit with the sun over your shoulder.

Its totally fine outdoors, definitely can see the screen. However if you are wearing sunglasses it is pretty difficult to see the screen. I still recommend buying it though.

These screens offer clear sharp views. Brighter screen than with previous matte screen protector. But for best performance don't try to use in direct sunlight. Don't think any screen (or no screen) is going to work under that condition.

The screen has a anti-glare coating and the only glare I have seen is from bright lamps and direct sunlight.Close the curtains and/or turn off any bright lamps and it's fine. Incandescent lighting isn't a huge issue, although it can bee seen depending on lamp placement.

I have used it outside with difficulty. I've been told there are red tinted glasses that make it easier to use
