Sorry. My experience says otherwise. I've had no luck, despite continued 
efforts at "anticipation", with live view on "action" (read grandson) 
photography. The shutter must close, then open and close again. Too much 
time in my experience.

Fortunately I adore the rangefinder aspect, as I always have. The live view 
is a very nice added feature, but not for "decisive moment" images for me... 
And it doubles the shutter actuation count...
Best,
Bob
