Why this camera feature makes photography the perfect hobby…

I know what you mean about being in the moment when looking through the viewfinder. I've started my photographic journey with an older Fujifilm X-T1, i do love this camera. Great presentation bro. Thanks

So true.

True, but for me, not an absolute truth. I Agree, there is something about shooting through the view finder that makes me feel I am using a "real" camera. OLED technology has really enhanced the experience, and the "dark room" feel, where you can feel you are framing up shots puts me in a place where the surroundings seem to go away. Buttt... The advent of the LCD screen the last 15-20 yrs, especially those that articulate, help me frame low angle shots, flip it around to vlog and take selfies, and touch screen implementation has totally changed the game for how we interact with the tool. You can set focus points, snap photos (using touch), comfortably review your shots in camera, some cameras let you edit, and encourages some to really dive into the camera's menus to unlock all its power. You say the viewfinder has gotten many into photography, I say the LCD screen has gotten many into photography! You see some cameras made today without the viewfinder, but you don't see too many made without a back LCD screen.
