Does this camera have a viewfinder?

No it does not. Don't let that turn you away from this camera. I love this thing. I have 3 Canon cameras including the EOS 70D. This camera is worth it.

No. It has a tilting display that takes up the entire back of the camera. The display is just under 2"x3". The display is better than any others I've had, as far as visibility in sunlight.

No. But the tilt screen helps by allowing you to hold it at angles so you get no direct glare

The viewfinder is very small, I've gotten in the habit of not using it. Haven't used it for either bright sunlight or actions. However, it is one of the few cameras in this class with a viewfinder, and I am glad to have it. One of the reasons why this camera appealed to me. Will check these two conditions. I am extremely satisfied with the camera so far.

this website says it does (scroll down to where it says "viewfinder"): http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/leica-d-lux-6/leica-d-lux-6DAT.HTM

Yes, the "viewfinder" is on the back of the camera and is about 2 x 3 inches. It provides a very nice view of the picture you are about to take.

It has a viewfinder. As mentioned below this is an old model and there are newer ones from both Sony and Canon that have viewfinders. I have been very happy with my HRD-CX550V. It was logical choice when I bought it 3 years ago for a quality camcorder with a large amount of internal flash and SD card storage. While most current Sony and Canon have less internal flash, they do accept the largest capacity SDXC cards that are available in larger capacities than this model. I considered having a viewfinder important and still do because of difficulty seeing a pop out screen in bright light.

No, it doesn't, but that's about the only optional setting not offered. It's a very well designed compact camera with a great lens. My only complaint is the lack of an optical viewfinder, ..but that's my issue with all these "pocketable" models.

Hello Mary. The LCD screen is the only viewfinder. I do not know if you can get a separate one. As for the memory, the camera has a small internal memory, however I do suggest that you get a memory card as you can only take a few photos before the camera is full.

No it does not have a view finder. I wish it did because I like the camera.

It has BOTH a viewfinder or you can use the display in the back of the camera. I am like you, I don't like using the display. The viewfinder is excellent. There is a switch on the top of the camera that lets you choose which viewing system you prefer and it defaults it until you change it.

I do use the viewfinder a lot but don't know, I have a spare battery in my camera bag just in case. Sorry I can't be of help.

Correct there is no viewfinder. I didn't have much trouble with the screen in bright sunlight. Took the camera to Cabo San Lucas for vacation and it worked great. And I should add that it will depend somewhat on how sensitive your eyes are in the sun and if you are wearing sunglasses. I had sunglasses with a medium tint. I didn't find it to be an issue like it is on a lot of smart phones.

Yes it has a viewfinder. It works quite well except the diopter adjustment doesn't go quite far enough for my glasses. Then again, my glasses are pretty strong!

It doesn't come with a viewfinder, no - but there are two available optical viewfinder from Ricoh for it, as well a few other aftermarket viewfinders that will work well to varying degrees.Model GV-1 is the most popular.

Yes it does. I own this camera and use the eyepiece viewfinder when the LCD screen is hard to see in the sunlight

Ok so the pictures say it has a viewfinder (the little eyehole on the back of the camera for the unintelligent), yet some people are saying it does NOT have one and some people are saying it DOES have one.... how is someone who NEEDS a viewfinder supposed to know whether to purchase this camera or not

I guess I am not able to answer, but I did find a site from which to download the latest updates to my camera and the viewfinder works great.
