EVF/LCDs will likely never be "perfect" but then I haven't found an optical viewfinder that was "perfect" yet either.
The Panasonic L1 allows "live view" to the rear LCD. Beautiful for manual focusing when doing precision work as it can be used at a 10x magnification level and gives 100% precise view of what's being framed. The Sony R1 EVF and LCD can allow you to see what's going on under circumstances when an optical viewfinder looks almost completely black, and the top-mounted swivel LCD allows waist level framing even in vertically oriented photos. The KM A2 did a similar thing. Unfortunately, neither implemented enough magnification to make manual focusing particularly wonderful. Optical reflex finders are always more responsive and better for moving subjects and facial expressions. Plusses and minuses. Godfrey On Feb 11, 2007, at 9:18 AM, P. J.
