Can you manually focus the lens on this camera, instead of relying on automatic focus?

Manual focus is achieved by using the switch on the side of the lens. It is marked MF. When in Manual Focus mode the image is enlarged significantly and is ideal for photographing lions in tall grass!!

does it have an articulated lcd screen

The flip up and down is brilliant. Prefer to my old camera by a clear mile

Sony hx400v or sony hx400vb? i keep seeing both these numbers. are they the same camera.?

Hi Bonnie, They're the same model, the B is a retailer differentiation. Sony support team

Using your phone as a remote control - does this mean you can take photos using a phone app or just review them?? Thanks

Hi Mr. P. R, You can control the camera, zoom in/out, shoot images/movies using your phone and also review the pictures/movies on your phone. For more details about PlayMemories Mobile app, you can check this link: http://clc.to/uTU-3g (copy and paste the link into your web browser).
