I don't know about "wonderful" use, but use, that's for sure. Much easier for
a 1.89 meter (6' 2") man to get that angle, than climbing up a child-sized
slide and looking back down.
I don't use it a lot, but I confess... I find the swing-out panel quite useful
.... especially for tripod shots...

and when holding the camera above my head, shooting over a crowd...

It's also a huge boon for low angle shots. I used to drop to my knees,
whenever necessary, but as I get older, I'm finding that while I can still drop
down, getting back up again is getting harder every year!

It just dawned on me, David, looking at the image again, that you
make wonderful use of the rotating rear screen on your Oly in
composing! :)
