I hate poor viewfinders. When the auto-focus starts jumping around all over the place, you have to slap it into MF to bring back sanity. I don't think there is any better feature that improves my photography than a good viewfinder. The viewfinder is want makes an SLR worth being an SLR. Most of the time auto-focus is great. But if you have multiple targets it can start to have fits. And for macro it is a must.
