When is the EVF going to catch up with cameras?

[Shawn Nelson]

I'd strongly recommend getting both. Having EVF for camera op and LCD for focus puller is an amazing setup! Plus the LCD is super valuable for light weight shots (EVF is heavy as a mother), table dolly/short jib shots, etc.

IMO, you should buy the LCD. It's invaluable AND awesome!
I'm still getting used to using it and not having a view finder but hey, I'm running around Hawai'i with the BEST DAMN CAMERA around and that little LCD kicks so much butt it's not funny.

I just hope that by the time my EVF makes it way home, I still want to use it!

Agreed, the LCD and EVF are not really options...you need to have both.

Hey Shawn, now that you have had some time with the EVF.. what are your thoughts? likes/dislikes?

I came to the conclusion today I'm going to have to go for the EVF as well. I was in really bright sun and trying to pull my own focus. As bright as the LCD is, I just would find it easier sealing off extraneous light with my eye.
