Does the back display have any problems with glare or reflected when shooting on a sunny day? Some camera displays are hard to see in sunlight.

All LCD screens suffer from bright sunlight reflection. However, the greater the pixels or clarity will improve your ability to see the screen with greater ease. Best solution? Purchase a SLR with thru-the-lens viewing.

Thank Canon for giving you a choice; several of their digital cameras of this size have a viewfinder ......so if you are at the Pyramids or the summit of mount kilimanjaro ...you can work around that situation---- and you don't have to buy the G series to get that option !

The glare is no more than any other digital camera with an LCD on the back. And, being so small it is very easy to shade the camera with one hand. something not as easy with a larger camera. It's really no problem.

Like almost any LCD in this type of camera,yes you may have to work your way around it,but no big deal ,it is a quality product ,probably better than average LCD's.

I have had no problems with glare or anything else for that matter. I don't know if it has actual anti-glare properties built in but it works great for me. Great monitor for a great price. Just don't buy it for the sound. The speakers are more than useless.

If you can stand it on window sill or mount it to something,You can but in bright sunlight it may give a glare. I have hadit take really clear pics and a few washout pic. We use it to hunt, I love it. Have other brand cams but like Wildgame the best.

Just like any camera it depends on the camera and the amount of sun. But compared to my older cameras it wasn't bad at all.

It is not easy try. Turn your body a little to cast some shade on the LCD. See if you can look a little sideways on the screen. Shade the sun a little with the other hand or a hat if possible. Shoot and hope for the best. IF you have the sun in your back like that and you try to photograph people you will see they squint their eyes and that picture get kind of flat due to the direct sun so try to turn a little away if you can. Sorry but that's why many cameras still has optical finders also.

Some say it is hard. I find it easy to see in all types of lighting. The backlight works well in dim or dark places. I was in regular daylight today and it was easy to see. Maybe if it was direct sunlight like a bright sunny day with the sun directly on it you may have trouble, but I had plenty of sun in NH today and had no problems.

The actual display area is not glossy and does not have a mirror-like finish, so glare is not as bad as it would be on, say, an old style CRT. However, if you have a lot of light behind you, it can show on parts of the display that are dark, though it is much less noticeable on bright areas. Overall I'd say it does very well at dealing with glare.

The screen is some what anti reflective to some degree, however the rear cover doesn't allow great clarity when taking photos. You probably want to remove it to get better results.

I found that my TV does not have reflection issues...they are not eliminated but are reduced to a point that you have to be looking for reflections in order to see them at all. Glare has not been an issue for me at all. Remembering that plasmas inherently have lower brightness than any LCD/LED set, the reflection/glare level is satisfactory, your issues may be more brightness related. The set has a beautiful picture!

The screen is glossy, however it's also ridiculously bright, so for most applications the lack of anti-glare is a non-issue. I haven't tested it outdoors, but I imagine that would be the one area you might have a problem.

H. Panda... when you turn off the display it is not glossy, so I would say no. I will say that there is little glare from light no matter what angle you are looking at the display. One of the reasons I liked this display for the great price.

It has a good display. I think it will be fine in bright sunlight, BUT you must aim it at your face. The best thing is it has a big display whick makes things a lot easier. -Migs

Normally it does not but I have to admit on a recent trip to San Diego I was taking photographs during the day and the sun was very bright and I almost couldn't see the display/screen because of the glare. On the flip side it took amazing pictures and the outdoor videos came out fantastic. You can actually use the zoom while recording a video.

Not sure if this will help but I don't see a reflection on this tv , it also doesn't have a problem with sun glare as my tv is in a room with 3 huge windows. The viewing angle is great too , you can sit almost completely to the side of it and still see the tv.

I would argue that the glare is a non issue altogether. I really think people who complain about glare are simply LCD/LED fanboys. My unit is in a sun-drenched room with wrap-around ceiling to floor windows and I've never had an issue with glare. I do need to close the blinds in the day, but that's the tradeoff for a superior picture from a display that doesn't double as a neon flashlight. So in sum, screen brightness can be an issue, but for me that's easily resolved with the blinds. Glare has never been an issue for me. I continue to stand by my initial statement that this is the finest screen I've ever viewed when broken in and calibrated properly.

no it has problems with sunlight go to youtube there are lot of reviews on this ,but believe me this is a old lens and so doesnot have features of new ones but it outlasts every other one for potraits and party pictures or marriages.exceptional clarity go to dxomark and pick the lens and camera and look for the scores,it will help you

It's definitely glossy and reflective, but I wouldn't say that there's any more glare than the original screen by itself. It's really quite unnoticeable. Unless maybe your screen brightness is all the way down and you're out in direct sunlight at noon, but then there's always the viewfinder.
