Originally posted by kypfer With age, having to hold the camera well away from my face to be able to focus on it and see what I'm doing with LiveView means I only ever use it on a tripod to focus a long manual lens with focus-peaking on my K-70. Almost everything else is done through the viewfinder, though there has been the odd occasion with a low-level macro shot when I haven't had my right-angle finder to hand that the tilting screen on my K-70 has made life a lot easier ... another aspect of age is that crawling through the undergrowth to get the shot only seems like a good idea 'till you have to stand up again
I'll admit, LiveView works quite well with a "normal" autofocus kit-lens, provided there's no bright light reflections to prevent you seeing what you're trying to picture, but, for me, in the classic "sun over the shoulder" snapshot scenario, I just can't see the screen!
Well said (written). It's similar with me. I have used cameras without a rotating monitor for a long time (which means spectacular use of LV). That's why I sometimes forget that the K-70 and KP give the opportunity to shoot "LV from the hip" - like a gunslinger
By the way: I have recently forgotten something more and more
