Completely useless because of the unbelievable shutter lag for non-landscape images and inability to move the magnified area of the view around to check focus for landscape work. For the decisive moment you will need to anticipate an additional 1/2 sec or more in advance. For landscapes you will need to reframe after focusing. Sorry, but I never use live view. But I own no R lenses which it may actually be useful for per others' experiences I have read.
