Can you see what you're photographing in bright sunlight

Unless it's got a viewfinder you will be shooting blind on sunny days which is why I won't purchase a compact camera without one. It's not clear that this camera has one!

Does this camera take micro SD cards?

normal sd, but yes= micro +sd adaptor will work

Is this an autofocus camera?

Yes - good in good light sunlight but slow in overcast conditions. In dark areas (eg roof spaces / cellars - I am a surveyor) the infrared autofocus does not always work to well. But over all a good little camera for it's price.

can you confirm this includes the charger and PC connector please?

It does come with a battery charger and cable. No USB cable is included but you can attach an older style "USB 2.0 A to Mini USB B" cable to connect to a PC. My Windows 10 PC automatically detected the camera as a Canon IXUS 185 and you can browse the contents as you would do with any attached USB drive. The connectors look like this https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/415db-5xO-L._AC_.jpg
