The LCD view screen would be a delight to use, particularly if it could be real time. That's a lot easier to do with an RF than a reflex, although I understand the new Nikon D200 reflex does have a real time viewer, unless I read the specs wrong. It would have a busy FP shutter sequence. The Oly prosumers, like the 5050 have real time LCD viewing. I use it for CU work. Bob R
