All the viewfinders on point and shoot (non SLR) cameras do not function
thru the lens so they do not and can not in fact tell you where the
borders of your shot will be.
The LCD image does do that I believe...

Oh, I'm with the "use both" crowd. I'm not going to lay on my belly to
get low shots, so I try to guess what's happening with the LCD. Ditto
macros. But I probably just point and shoot (and crop later) more than
I use the LCD. It really pains me to see so many good cheap cameras
leave off viewfinders these days, leaving many outdoor shooters
clueless as to what they're taking a picture of.

While I prefer the viewfinder, the digital zoom only shows up in the

through the viewfinder.

Digital camera folks! Which manner of "viewfinding" do you use
and/or prefer? Camera held out in front of you at arms length as you
stand or walk about looking like a zombie, or to use the actual
viewfinder if your camera has one?
I'm a viewfinder person myself if for no other reason than any
camera is hard to hold steady when held at arms length.
