You just want through the lens viewfinding (no optical viewfinder). What the lens sees, you see.
Jamo makes a very good point, my Nikon 5200 sees a lot more use than my 8700 (as does my cell phone which gets used the most). The 8700 has the best picture quality because of the lens, but it's bulky.
You really don't need all those lenses anymore if the camera has high resolution, photoshop the image down to what you want, still beats film. The current digitals can beat image quality of the old medium format (2 1/4") film cameras and are rivaling the large format ones.

Oh, I see what you mean. You think viewing the picture on the LCD is just as good as an optical viewfinder. That works out OK if you don't mind the sun glare on the monitor and that the monitor on the back of the camera is in no way equal to the resolution you can see thru an optical finder...
