The other shot that was braced on a low stump could have been done with optical view, but I would have brought back a lot of dirt on my pants along with the photograph. The Live View is something I use perhaps only 10 percent of the time, but having that creative added capability is similar to why we pay the extra $ for that added optical excellence of Leica lenses.
