Photography 101

I *do* look like a tool, an even a viewfinder camera big enough to hide my head won't change that.

However.

I don't take jittery pictures most of the time, there are ways to steady the camera besides using my forehead.

Presbyopia.

Constantly active screens do represent a drain on the battery, but all my cameras have a simple button labeled "display" that lets me toggle it off. for that matter, I don't have the camera on all the time like, say, a video camera.

One of the most important deciding factors for my camera choice was speed from power up to picture taken. It mostly spends its time OFF tucked in my pocket.

Not meaning to quarrel. Hey... show us some pictures, why doncha?
