In most cases, with a point and shoot, the optical viewfinder is used to

Please. I'd rather see the sedan.

Our family sedan is one of those generic looking things that is the
same silver color as every other family sedan in the parking lot. My
wife keeps a particularly distinctive (and ugly) hat in the rear
window shelf just so she can spot our car in the row of other generic
silver sedans.

The grandchildren, though, are distinctively handsome. I will spare
you, though.
