Live view surprise!

I haven't had DSLRs for very long. But I have always heard that live view wasn't very good compared to mirrorless cameras, as the AF performance was poor?

But I tried it out for the first time, and I was really impressed with the results!

One rose bush in the corner of the garden is very large. Its over 10ft (3m) tall, and just as wide. And there was a rose near the top, that I really wanted to get a shot of.

So I thought it was a good opportunity to try Live view? So I flipped the screen down, and reached up high with my arm. And even though my arm was a bit shaky? The results were far more impressive than I was expecting?
