Don't use an APS-C camera, especially the lower end ones with the postage stamp sized viewfinders.

Go into a Sony Store and check out the viewfinder of the A900 which has the largest viewfinder of any 35mm based DSLR or look into a 1Ds MKIII or D3 viewfinder. That's what viewfinders should look like.
