Still helps composing the frame. I have a Kodak with faux SLR set up that I can switch back and forth to the rear display or the eye piece. The eye piece has a small screen rather than a mirror through the lens. I take better pictures with eye piece but it is nice to have the option to use both that and the back display. I find the display on the back next to useless for me to get a decent picture. -- John Duncan Yoyo -------------------------------o) ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
