Questions & Answers

LARRY S : description says internal memory card-- do I have to buy sd card also??ANNEMARIE K : yes
Shopper : Does the camera have a view finder? Can I see a picture of the back of the camera and a top view of it.JOHN B : I guess it depends on your description of "view finder." It has a 3" LCD Screen which can be used as a view finder when taking pictures AND it has an electronic view finder (that emulates the old fashioned optical view finder) which is located just above the LCD screen that can also be used as a view finder when taking pictures. Pictures and descriptions of both can be viewed on the Adorama catalog write up of the XG-1.
