Can the pictures and videos be seen through a viewfinder on the unit?

No. But you can connect using cable provided to a pc. I like using the handheld wildgame sd card viewer. Or u can use a digital camera to view card.

This is only a camera. It is your choice to find a device to view or record the images being seen by the camera.

The view finder is built into the optical system of the camera. You can't see it.

It has a "through lens" as well as the video screen. I can NOT use a camera that doesn't have the "through lens".

Not a see thru view finder. It has a 3 inch video screen at rear. I don't think you will find a see thru view finder at this price point.

the photos as well as the videos come out in color. The display (an internal LCD were you set up the camera features) is in black and white. You cannot see photos or videos on this display, you have to download it and see it in your laptop/pc etc

There is no built-in viewfinder. However, it is possible to attach an external Panasonic viewfinder DMW-LVF2. This unit is quite small and very light.

The camera does not have a viewfinder. You can adjust the LCD screen brightness, though.

I've only tested the USB port on it once, so I may be wrong, but I'm fairly sure you can only do a photo-slide show using a usb drive. Any video content has to come from an actual player of some sort (computer, DVD plater etc.). But like I said, I've only tried that once, so anyone else please correct me if I'm wrong :)

No the camera does not have a built in view finder, you have to take the SD card out to watch the images/videos from a SD player, or hook up the camera with a PC or Mac.

No you cannot add an external viewfinder. This is a rather low cost camera & it would cost too much to add a viewfinder.

Only some special purpose cameras do not have viewfinders at all. These are, for example, web cameras and video surveillance cameras. They use external monitors as their viewfinders.To better explain the answer I will guess you are asking about an optical viewfinder and not an electronic one.To which the answer would be; No it doesn't have an optical viewfinder.However, it does have an electronic viewfinder; the LCD screen. In addition to its primary purpose, the LCD screen; an electronic viewfinder, can be used to replay previously captured material, and as an on-screen display to browse through menus.

You can turn the slideshow off, so it only displays a single file. I might shop around a bit more to find a frame with a little better viewing angle. This is good for photos at a glance, but video won't look great because the viewing angle isn't the best.

you can view the pictures on the cameras view screen but the screen is pretty small. we take the memory card out and put it in our computer and use our picture viewing software that we use for our other digital cameras.

Yes but you can only view it with their software included. When inserting the sd card into the usb adapter and then into a computer it will appear to be empty.

Yes, in the menu. You must have the camera plugged in to a monitor to access the menu. There isn't a function or a button on the camera that will do it.

No. It is just a storage device. To view photos you will have toconect it to a computer.
