Well, silly Darren, one composes with an LCD or electronic viewfinder
exactly the same way one does with an optical viewfinder.

Not entirely. I can't see anything through the optical viewfinder if I
try holding it out at arms length to compose the shot.
Live View, when I've got the camera mounted on a tripod, hasn't turned out
to be as bad as I feared it would be. It could be similar to using the
ground glass on a view camera if I could remember to take my dark cloth
along in my camera bag.
Mostly it's tiresome having to get into the menu and change the DOF
preview method
... and forgetting to change it back when I'm finished.
Very disconcerting the next time I try to preview DOF through the
viewfinder & everything goes black. Just a momentary "WTF?" I don't
think it's yet cost me any shots.
I wonder if that's something that could be assigned to the "green button"?
