LCD: Why in the world didn't Sony make a flip out/swivel for the DSC N2 LCD?

I have a DSC N1 and the N2 is apparently physically identical to the N1. The camera is not much bigger than a deck of cards -- it would be hard to add a swivel screen with the hinges, etc. on such a small camera. Besides, the LCD is a touch screen. Almost everything you do with the camera (besides zoom and clicking a picture) is done with the touch screen. I do not know how thick a swivel screen would need to be to support touch-screen. I will say that the large LCD is GREAT! I agree that a swivel screen would be nice, but it is also nice to have such a small camera. You are also right that this second model (DSC-N2) has some features not available on the first model (DSC-N1). I am seriously considering getting this one just for the few additional features, and because I like the N1 so much.

The lcd monitor comes with a black plastic cover on the back. Remove the cover and you will see how to mount the swivel base.

Because it is a picture in picture. Not the whole screen. You would need to flip.

I was just going to update my review, the swivel up down feature is really nice. Makes it easy to direct it spot on just where your eyes go when working on electronics.

Thanks "tvdvdfanatic". He is right. My DVD player is a Flip and swivel type..a Sony DVP FX-950 or a 970..and only this swivel type would fit as illustrated on the photo. And I would recommend this style of DVD player, as it takes up less room, and are protected from hits and damages while the flip screen is out.The prices for these players have come down, and are now quite affordable :)

No - it will move swivel side to side, but not up and down. For being a 1080p picture, I am disappointed with the quality of the image! My Sony 32" 720 Bravia has a better picture. Only buy if you need built in DVD!

it can, but you will need to buy a bracket that will fit the swivel lcd. it will need to attach to the bottom of the camera, and not the LCD screen (as this one does). Its virtually identical to the Zacuto viewfinder so it will probably fit theirs. and it might even fit this one:http://www.amazon.com/CARRY-SPEED-LCD-VIEW-FINDER/dp/B004RDEIAO/ref=pd_sim_p_28worth a try! I love this seagull, cause its the same as the zacuto viewfinder and saved me $$$$!

If you are asking if this can be mounted upside down, the answer is yes and no. There is no current option to flip the picture 180 degrees in the menu. (it's on a feature enhancement list though for future R&D cycles) You can easily flip the video 180 via post processing software or even youtube editor has this option now. So your screen will be upside down is the thing until a future update comes out.

Yes Kathryn, everything you can do with the viewfinder you can do with the lcd (and more) Yes it does flip out for video but only downward and upward, not sideways.

I don't know, might be something to call and ask Sony about! I have never tried!

Not that I know of. It is not on a swivel base so I use it in landscape only. I think there would also need to be a special driver to use it in portrait mode.

The screen is on a swivel and will rotate all the way around..but to answer your question..if you want to permanently mount it in the other directions all of the mounting holes are in the same spot so it should be very simple and easy to do...but the quickest fix is to just spin the monitor to face the other direction.

It definitely seems to be a silly omission and this is the first Sony TV that doesn't have it. Thanks for confirming that I'm not missing something.Other than that, I'm loving this TV. No doubt it's great bang for the buck.

Please disregard my previous answer...the LCD display does pivot 180 degrees

I, too, have to get up to open the tray box on my Sony Player. You're not alone. I'd also be interested in knowing the remote can operate, so I'll wait to see the replies as well!

I have the D5100 and it doesn't fit that model because of the LCD screen that swivels.
