In my case, for a photo camera I much prefer the 645Z or Sony NEX 'tilt only' screens rather than the 'fully articulated' that this new model shows. If you want to just face it up or down it is much quicker that having to move the screen to the side and then turn it up or down.
This kind of screen makes much more sense for a videocamera where the screen is on one side, IMHO.
