It may be just that I am old-fashioned, but I hate that almost all point-and-shoots no longer have viewfinders.  The point and shoots can easily fit in a pocket and now have good zooms and resolution, but it is hard to find ones with more than just an LCD screen.  I would think there are enough of us who want a viewfinder that someone would make a decent point and shoot with one.

I'm always on the lookout for a All Weather point and shoot camera. There are some nice ones out there with GPS and all the HD features that outdoor people love.

In the reviews the lack of viewfinders is always a sore subject especially with wild life/action photographers.
I think they're might be a few out there, but to initially lock in on a subject, especially at a distance, a viewfinder is a nice thing to have.

I'm surprised some sharp company hasn't come up with a folding one that gives you an option.

Something I took with the little shirt pocket camera zoomed in as fare as the optical zoom would go. Click on the picture to see the video.
