Hi all, I have a question for those of you who have switched from a DSLR to an R6/R6 MkII, an R7, an R10, etc.

I am just transitioning - reluctantly - from the 7DII to the R7. And - much like you - I was apprehensive as to the lack of a top LCD. Old habits die hard, I still on occasion miss the display - but only to check on the battery. For everything else I can live with the available display options which you can tone down to just that bare minimum so that the EVF is free from many distractions you can often see when camera screens are shown in reviews. The other habit that dies hard is chimping - I now can use the EVF and because it is better visible I need to get my head around not using the display on the back of the camera that much.
