Want to Move Freely? Forget the Viewfinder. The Sharp Viewcam VL-A10U does not have a viewfinder - you frame your shots in its 3-inch 270° rotating LCD, the largest screen you'll find for the price. You'll either love this method of shooting, or feel lost without a viewfinder. If you want to keep your eye on the scene, not in that little square, this is the camera for you. ??This Viewcam's swivel LCD screen lets you move the camera away from your face, so you can watch the kids while you record, shoot over crowds or even point back at yourself to add some narration. The prominent LCD screen, with its manual brightness control, is also well suited for in-the-field playback. You won't miss any important shots, because an indicator keeps you up-to-date on the remaining battery power and tape length. This feature is particularly important because LCD operation burns more battery power than a viewfinder - but it's still a good idea to carry a spare battery. Minimize
