You've got to keep some light off of the screen or possibly tilt the screen and hold the camera higher. This is a normal probelm with most digital LCD or LED screens.

This I understand for I have the same problem on a bright sunny day and the way I compensate is by tilting the top of the viewer down some and raise the camera and look up into the viewer and it lets me see good enough to keep the camera on the subject I am filming. hope this help . some times I just get out there and try different ways to overcome these flaws .

yes the screen is gloosy............ problem? depends on what is in the background or if you want to use it in the sun.

The screen is bright but in direct sunlight on a very sunny day it will be hard to see. To solve that problem you can purchase a Hoodmam to place over the screen the screen so it can be viewed.

Yes and no. Check to make sure the wiring "thingy" is properly connected where the screen is being attached. It was hard for me to connect it back. Hopefully the wire isnt damaged. If u were to plug your old screen back I and it comes on then thsy may have sent a bad screen/wire "thingy". Hope this is helpful. Sorry I don't know the correct terminology, but I was able to successfully replace two of my laptop screens. Good luck!

I stuck a piece of folded paper/cardboard between the shade and the window (fully closed) and left it there for about 24 hours. With the heat, the shade warped a little just so it cleared the window from hitting it. There was also another area that was hitting. I reinforced the double sided tape and fixed that

This is a pretty embarrassing story. About 6 months ago the screen went black. I took it to a store. I was going to get a new one. At the shop, it slipped out of my hands and it clattered onto the glass counter top! I turned it on and there was the screen working again! It has been working ever since! I love this camera. Weird, huh?

That is a hard question to answer. All I can say is that this was the only part of my screen that was busted and that I replaced (the LCD ). All the connections, the surrounding case, etc were fine.

yes, screen is visible in sunshine, in fact visibility in sunshine was improved after install.

Hey there, I just had this same thing happen to my camera!!! The camera was not dropped or anything and it seemed to just appear out of the blue. One minute I am taking pictures and it looked fine, then I look down and the screen internally is cracked, the outside of the LCD does not have a scatch on it. I am about to send it off to Olympus to get a warrentyl repair, but could use any other instances of this happening as evidence that this is not my fault. Please let me know what you were able to get done. Thanks, Nick

I was making an outdoor backdrop. When it was early morning and in the shade with no back lighting it worked fine. But assoon as the sun would hit something bright in the background or the sun came out and hit the back it showed real bad. I did not test to see how it work if the sun was hitting the front.

I believe it's fitted to the screen. If I understand your question correctly...

Normally we could see fine, but on occasion it was difficult to see underwater. I didn't have a problem seeing the screen in bright sun.

I wish I could add a photo here, but short answer is yes. This just happened to me about 2 weeks ago, my screen completely shattered.

Looks like your phone got wet. A new screen might work as long as you blow dry the inside of your phone.
