You don't even have to use the 3" lcd. With a simple USB cable, you can connect to a computer/laptop and use that display. With the 5X and 10X view options you can zoom in very close using the lcd and confirm your exact focal point. Awesome.

it works with wireless or tethered remote shooting

Let's get one thing straight, before it's thought of as "god's gift".

Live View is only used for manual focusing. Stands to reason that with the mirror flipped up (which is essential to make the thing work), AF would be useless.

no offense but that is really gay... it may as well be a point-and-shoot camera. looking through the LCD screen instead of the view finder for an SLR camera is just stupid... i personally see it as a waste. I'm sorry but i don't like it.
