Yep, just like using a film camera in good old days, no
chimping. If all the essential adjustments are made physically available (through buttons and dials), a digital camera can afford not to have a screen. The screen-less design actually makes user experience more pleasant and connected. The more I use my M9, the less I bother to check the rear LCD for following reasons:
1, The screen is too crappy to be used as visual reference to confirm focus accuracy
2, Just found out I don't have to adjust ISO on M9!
3, I shoot raw and I adjust white balance in post processing
4, I use 32gb card and I always pick the keepers in computer
Try using your digital camera without chimping. You might like it :-)
