A couple of years ago, while I was intrigued by the 'superzoom' or 'bridge' cameras (especially seeing what Hal could do with his), I like to use a viewfinder, and was completely put off by the faux-color, flickery images in their electronic viewfinders, at least those I saw browsing at Best Buy. Instead I opted for a relatively low-end Canon Rebel SLR (T2i), and augmented the kit lens with a Tamron 17-270.
This is nice equipment, but it's really more than I want to carry on trips by train or plane, and it's even awkward walking in the woods or paddling the canoe. So I'm thinking once again of downsizing to a superzoom. I've seen comments here and there about improved electronic viewfinders (EVs), larger with more pixels, and I'm wondering how the newest crop of superzoom EVs compare.
Any comments? Observations on other parameters welcome as well, of course.
