Very helpful, thanks! Yes I have taken some rubbish photos, my words. In fact I take many, many rubbish photos.

Are we to assume from your mockery that you don't, or that you always remember to do everything you were going to, even with the many distractions of life?

Yes, anything on the rear LCD is a distraction for me. Dropping the LCD brightness helps somewhat, but of course then its no fun to show people the photos with dim light, so its not the best solution. 'Option 6' would be helpful in all the R cameras as an 'option'.

I'm not alone. The R5 has the solution already. R5 users asked for it, and some use it.

I guess some people enjoy mocking others anyway they can, get off on it? Enjoy the mean-spirited sense of togetherness from attacking the 'other'? What is the point I wonder? Does questioning the abilities of a camera cause you pain from cognitive dissonance? Go figure. I'm out.

How do you deal with things that are happening in real life outside the view of the EVF that you cannot turn off? It's difficult to understand how you are seeing the LCD once your eye is looking through the EVF. It's below the VF and outside the view of a human eye that is level with the VF.

It switches off when your face gats near the EVF sensor. I’m sure you knew that.
