I never got the point of viewfinders. They seem just a relic of the past when digital screens were not possible. Completely useless now when screens are available.
Screens
+ Don't have to cram your face into the camera = can shoot high and low or at any angle you want
+ You see exactly what you get
+ Bigger than VF
- Takes up 10% more battery in use?
VF
+ You look like a hipster
- Often not 100% accurate of the final photo
- Takes up space on the camera
- Can only take photos where you can put your head too
- Have to put your greasy face and nose against the camera, leaving marks and possibly touching the touch screen
>B-but you need to learn how to use it b-because it's part of photography's history
No you don't, just like you don't need to know how to start a steam engine in order to learn how to drive a car or know how to code in Assembly in order to use Excel.
