Which one is your preference?
I find that I use nearly without exception, the viewfinder. I find it simply a case of own taste.
Or are there other benefits involved by using a specific one? The LCD monitor only get used for viewing photos
and *sometimes* when changing settings; like when it is on a tripod. Otherwise, when handheld, I even do the settings via the viewfinder. How general is my way of working?

PS
remember my questions about skin colour recently?

This is how far I am with it. ( sometimes skin colour
seem to be less of a problem than shading on
the right places:-)

I’m with you. When I see folks holding poing-n-shoot cameras at arm’s length to frame a shot I wonder how long it will take them to figure out why so many of the images are blurry… Using the viewfinder reduces camera shake. (Perhaps this arm’s-length phenomenon is behind so many manufacturers’ adding stabilization to their products…?)
