My latest laptop is a touchscreen. The only reason it that you can't find a high end laptop that is not a touchscreen. I actually tried to use it as a touchscreen and it slowed me down and left the screen with fingerprints all over it.
I do not want a touchscreen on my camera.
Just had a quick look at the specs,have previous D5xxx had DOF preview and i can see the touch screen being useful for touch screen focusing if working on a tripod for say macro.
I was forgetting some people will still use the term macro for its proper meaning which most have forgotten are you as old as me
Rephrasing, if used for close up photography on a tripod touching the screen to set/move the focus point could be handy.
It's a bit confusing this macro thing. Normally if I'd shoot the stars or moon, in my opinion I'm doing macro and when I shoot bugs, that's me doing micro. They don't call them macroscopes either.
