I've been reading about the Canon EOS Rebel XSi live view. Apparently it is somewhat difficult to use for manual shot setup in macro (where depth of field is tiny). Since my reason for purchasing a camera is to do in-studio manual macro work, I'd want live view to be useful for this.
What camera body has the best live view for manual macro work? And since I'll be doing mostly manual work, I do not want to pay for ridiculous camera IQ. (I really don't need a dozen focus areas, or face detection, or subject tracking, or the raft of other expensive but useless stuff.)
I will probably end up with both a 60mm and a 150mm macro (though I'll make use of whatever kit lens for miscellaneous human-scale shots). Thanks in advance for any advice.
