It's not nearly as nice as using an M, that's for sure!

However this is a digi P&S camera...I don't find the viewfinders on the 
little digicams to be at all useful.  And this LCD is a nicer one than I've 
seen before...sharp, bright, refreshes pretty quickly.

Manual focusing does not seem easy to do by looking for a sharp image on 
the LCD, but there's a nifty distance range index that varies with zoom and 
f-stop, so I imagine only using MF for zone focusing anyway.
