We use a Sony (records image on a floppy) digital camera to take 
pictures of test equipment etc to be place on the web for sale ( 
http://www.sphere.bc.ca ). I nor my boss has ever used the viewfinder 
yet. It seems a lot more convenient to hold the camera and use the 
display. What you see is pretty well what you get. I love that feature. 
 Every piece of equipment that I rebuild and calibrate is photoed and 
placed on the net. Up until now I've been using a Canon T-50 35mm for 
all my personal photographic needs but in the new year I'm seriously 
considering picking up a digital cam. All that remains is to figure out 
which one :)
