The viewfinder is slightly small, but has a high profile, so is clear. Still, switching to Live View offers some advantages, mainly if the camera is on a tripod – we wouldn’t recommend using the L1 as you would a compact camera. I also found that the flip-out screen of the Olympus E-330 is much more useful because it gives you the option for waist-level shooting.
