Does anyone else here use live view on your camera? I've had people tell me real photographers don't, but I think that's a bunch of crap. I hold it up with my hands like I would if I were taking a photo through the eyepiece, but instead of looking through the viewfinder, I just look at the back screen (about a foot away from my face).
Its easier to see the image, you can see outside things going on (instead of JUST seeing the shot), and it doesn't dry out my contacts looking at the screen. Lastly, the camera is still just as stable as it would be up to your eyes, so there's no real downside. So I personally have plenty of reasons to prefer it. But what about you? Do you ever use live view? Why or why not?
