Jules,
Thanks for the hint. I wasn't thinking of this feature, being so used to shoot at will with the DSLR and not having the viewfinder display the latest taken picture (which is technically impossible with an optical viewfinder).
I will try what you suggest at next possible occasion.
The ideal mode would be to have the latest picture shown for a few seconds on the display (for a quick check) but not in the EVF. Is that possible?

Of course, the Electronic Viewfinder does not behave like the optical one on DSLRs. Personnaly, I like it better. I like the full time Live View without the disadvantages of LV on the DSLR. I really like the fast LV and having it in the EVF, not just on the LCD where it is washed out by the sun. I also like having it react to changes made in the settings - WYSIWYG.
To have the last picture shown on the LCD, see here, this the 4th post in the thread. I haven't tried it so I cannot comment.

I don't see a need for this feature. Normally, I set the camera so that it displays the picture for 0.5 sec. in the EVF after taking the shot - this is enough to have a quick check and still allows for reasonnably fast shooting. If I want to shoot fast, I set the camera not to display the picture and I can shoot as fast as I want - when you shoot fast, you don't have time to look at the picture anyway...
Contrary to the Canon DSLRs I have owned, I have found that the OM-D is much more complicated and sophisticated. One must spend a lot of time understanding how it works and setting it up according to his needs. Reading the manual is MANDATORY and even, this is not enough: I had to do a lot of digging and searching on the Net. The M43 forum on dPreview.com is my friend... I read it every day.
And even then, some features are so complicated that it takes a lot of time to learn how to use them: the best example being FOCUSING. I almost returned the camera because I didn't like the way it focuses... and I'm just starting to get used to it, after 6 months. Granted, I don't use the camera as much in the winter months, but it's still a long time...
Regards
Jules
