I must admit I never used the LCD with my P&S unless absolutely necessary, Having used one form of SLR or another for bets part of 30 years, one gets used to looking through the viewfinder, maybe stuck in my ways, but for good reason. Using the viewfinder it is easier to steady the camera, tuck your elbows into your body to steady the camera, easier to keep level, less chance of camera shake, and no problem with the sun on the screen (ok thats not much problem here most of the time anyway lol) Old habits die hard. The only exception being in awkward spaces of low to ground as already mentioned, cant beat the LSD for that. I have also put the P&S in a flat sided glad jar and sat it in shallow water and done underwater shots pressing the shutter with a stick, difficult but can get some cool effects sometimes.

The Truth is Out There
