Looking large now I saw the second reclining figure in your composition. Well done. On the LiveView, for me it has proved useful for framing exactly with the wides but also on tripod (especially for close ups). For using the spot or other more advanced metering it works well too. With models in studio I found that the lag is not problematic where the pose is held for a couple of seconds until the flash is fired then move to the next. For continuous movement you would likely get some that work with anticipation and practice (where you have some forgiveness from depth of field) but it would be a Ferrari with 3 bicycle tyres for volume (1000's of frames in a shoot).
