Are you serious? The NEX-5N/5R, and all other touch screen enabled cameras allow to take the picture automatically as soon as focus has been acquired. You simply touch the subject you'd like to be in focus, and have your perfectly sharp pic within a fraction of a second without ever pressing the shutter button. Can't achieve any of that with an EVF.

It's just different style of shooting.

I like to pre-focus and then press shutter release at the right moment with absolutely minimum amount of lag.

I don't like the touch shutter where you need to wait for the camera to achieve focus first and then release shutter.   I just find that it introduces more lag (even if it is a fraction of a second) than my usual way.

There is no right or wrong way, just different style of shooting and different preferences.
