Ah yes, the advantage of myopia. Once one gets old enough, the reading
glasses just become part of the glasses one is wearing all the time anyway.
Now that the P&S LCDs are so large, they work very well with my double
aspheric progressive lenses.

Exactly why I don't think the loss of viewfinders is any loss at all.
They don't show what the camera will capture nor whether it is in focus.
I remember the shock one day when I remembered my S110 had a viewfinder.
Took one look through it and went back to the LCD, small as it is.
