I used a Nikon Coolpix 5700 with an EVF, for evidence photography, years ago and in my opinion it was a great camera for static image capture but wasn't one to use for any sort of dynamic capture - there was a noticeable time delay between pushing the shutter release and the actual image capture - giving you the image that occurred after the one you wanted. Does this delay still exist in modern EVFs?
