Does this camera have hypercrystal screen so it can be seen in bright sunlight and what does it come with.

Yes, the screen is a Hypercrystal/640k dot display. It's definitely a high end monitor, but performance in bright sunlight is so-so (all cameras are the same in this area). The camera, overall, works well and is a great bargain for an outdoorsy/ruggedized camera. It comes with a USB cable, wall adapter, software/manual CD and wrist strap.

I don't know about hypercrystal but I had no problem seeing the screen in bright Central American sunlight. Comes with strap, cable and AC plug. I bought a float strap separately.

Yes, it has night vision, it activates by it self depending on the amount of light that hits the camera. Hope it helps you

No, the camera just has the viewing screen. What looks like a view finder iis the flip up flash. All in all, it is an excellent multi-function camera for everyday or vacation use.

Like most digital cameras, it only has the video screen. Usually that feature is sufficient, but it can be a problem when taking pictures in bright sunlight.

Debbie. I haven't used the camera at the beach yet, but I've used the camera in bright sunlight without difficulty (I live in North Carolina which has its fair share of sunshine). You can turn up the brightness of the LCD screen to match the conditions with the minor downside on battery life.

No, unfortunately it does not..Just the LCD screen which makes it hard to see in bright light. I do have the Canon sx30IS that has the viewfinder, + reticulating LCD screen. Only problem is it is a lot heavier than this xs500is.

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!

No...just the LCD screen. This camera is a workhorse, however. Great for what it is.

I did not have any trouble seeing the picture on the screen in sunlight. I just shot over 170 photos outside and it worked fine.

yess it does. this camera is awesome . the only thing you need is a screen film protector because the only bad thing that can happen is Scratches on the screen and on the lens. Enjoy!

Yes, it does. Very good quality for the price. If I had it to do over, I would have bought the model right above this one. It works nice for stills but of course a separate digital camera with a higher pixel count would be better.

After your post, I started looking for the "sparkling pixels" on my Sony, but haven't seen any yet. I never noticed any on the Sonys that I observed in the showrooms either. It does appear that the higher priced Samsungs have the shiny screen, but not this one. Something else that is easy to check out at your local electronics store. C-NET is great for reviews that look for these factors.

It is stationary. No viewfinder so in the sunlight it is sometimes hard to see what you are taking a picture of, due to reflections on the LCD screen. Other than that, it is a very nice camera. Ergonomic and takes great pictures.

No. It comes with white and slightly red-yellowish screens as on the picture.

No, the camera has a large display that shows exactly what the picture will be. It works well in sunlight and is easy to see. We purchased it just before a trip to Disney and this was a great point and shoot camera.

Hey there ! yes it does come with a camera.Its a "Rydeen miny led2" I think the stock# is cm3-t150b-pri. This is the # off the box that the camera comes in. It is packaged inside the main mirror box. This is a NICE system. The camera is about half an inch square all way around,tall,wide,deep.
