I'm sure it did, Tony, but not in direct sunlight. This is the same reason that you cannot see most laptop and netbook PCs in direct sunlight, you cannot see many cellular telephone displays in direct sunlight, TV is out of the question - even the brightest LED screens, and a host of other displays. This is why the marine industry, both recreational and commercial, went with super-twist displays. I can now see my boat's radar display, when in the past you had to have a hood that you pressed your forehead against to see the images.
All the best,

High quallity displays like on apple products or the more expensive Samsung phones can be read in direct sunlight...
We have had this discussion before, but in every inch of the Genos, its obvious Yamaha tries to spend as little bux on the hardware as possible..
- No light metal casing
- low light low resolution screen
- no High end ARM CPU
- No balanced outputs
- cheep knobs instead of rotary encoders
And the list goes on...
(to be honest most also goes for my Korg PA4x and 1st gen Kronos)
personally i still think its very strange that for a multi thousand dollar instrument, they don't even spend $200 on the hardware.. it would have solved many problems if they did, like this problem..
