Swivel screen -- can you view it while you shoot yourself?

Yes you can. I have the camera & you can swivel the monitor screen front or back. I've not tried to 'shoot myself' but I use the swivel feature when the camera is behind me so I can look back at it to make sure the shot is centered where I want it.

If the screen is folded flat to the back of the camera, yes. Display facing out to you of course. It is very adjustable left to right and up and down. If you plan on using it with a battery pack grip, then make sure you get the extension bracket.

You're right. The only way to see the results of your shots is to shoot the lower left button which will light up the main display, and then shoot the right button to clear the display.

The LCD screen flips out and can be rotated 180 degrees all the way around, so you can aim the camera at yourself and see what you're filming.

Marc, yes and no....if you are asking if the screen tilts 180* so that you can see yourself and how you've framed the image, the answer is No....the screen only tilts 90*....but it's a very small camera, and it's easy to hold it with the thumb underneath and trip the shutter from the release button on top of the lens barrel, pointing the camera at yourself.... obviously this is not as accurate and you might have to reshoot, but it should work pretty well with a little practice ... on the newer model, the screen rotates the full 180*, but that one is currently much more expensive...it's a fun little camera if you can live with the quirks, the main one being that there's no shutter button on top of the body...takes a bit of practice to get used to using one of the lens barrel shutter releases (there's one on top, and one on the bottom)....good luck !

Hi Carmine, You can view front or rear independently on your computer. I don't know about individual views while recording. Good luck, Rex

Steven, link me to a 2D scrolling shooter, and I'll snap a picture of this monitor at 90 rotation. Right now just browsing the web I can see a slight haze on the screen. If I look at it at different angles the screen gets dark, but head on it looks nice just not as bright.

No. The case interferes with screen movement, so screen can't be pivoted out when the case is mounted. You can view the entire screen with the case mounted, just can't pivot the screen.

Yes, the screen has a detachable black background that rolls up and out of the way. You can then project from behind the screen. See the video at this link: http://www.campchef.com/portable-screens/outdoor-big-screen-144.html

I just perchased the H20. I'm use to having a view finder. I thought there may be a way torig some kind of sighting device. The camera already has a means of sighting in. Looking fromthe rear of the camera, there is an elbow formed to the left side of the flash "hump". If youbracket your subject in this elbow it'll pretty much end up dead center of your shot. Hey, it'snot hi-tech but the method works.

If you mean "can you use the LCD as a viewfinder?", yes. I often position the camera on a tripod in a location that I can not use or even see the normal viewfinder. It is nice to swing and tilt the LCD screen to allow me to compose the picture in those awkward positions.

No. You can manually adjust the angle. That's all it can do but does look cool.

No each camera has its own screen. I wish I could see all at one time but no.

Yes. The view finder pops out and turns the camera on just as if you were opening the side display.

No. But you can zoom in and move it up down left right from the zoom in screen

You can use it alone. There is a retaining strap so it does not go beyond vertical, and if you have it adjusted correctly you can use move your arms to your sides and rotate back up. However, it's a good idea to have someone within ear shot, or who will check on you after a few minutes, just to be safe.

If my yes don't fail me, I've got it right at 1 3/8 viewable screen. I use it for timing my target practice and it's the best one I've come across.
