True. But then I can zoom in on bits while I'm lining up the shot to see if 
it's in focus and such. My eyes aren't good enough to see that difference 
anyway.

And, of course, if they splurged on an LCD with the same resolution as the 
image sensor, it would be a bogus reason. (Of course, it would be silly to 
do that.)

It would make a lot more sense if the LCD swiveled. I can't count the number 
of pics I took with my Sony by holding it over the heads of the crowd.

Yep. Altho I find I don't watch the movies nearly as often as I watch the 
photos, I *have* figured out how to get the D90 movies to play over the XBox 
on the big-screen HDTV.
