Why do people still complain about digital point and shoot cameras not having an optical view finder!? its a compact point and shoot camera... not a nikon d3.
In strong light (like outside) it's sometimes hard to see the LCD on some cameras, making a viewfinder nice. But granted, I agree in that they are simply not precise enough at close range to warrant my use. I've been spoiled on SLRs =P
Once upon a time the LCD screens were minute, and most compacts came with an optical viewfinder. As screens got bigger, the optical viewfinder got rarer. Many dislike having to hold a camera at arms length while framing.
