In this new age of digital photography, does anyone ever connect a computer to their camera while they are taking portraits so you can see what the picture would look like on a larger medium than merely the small screen on the camera?

No models, but I do product photography and it is quite a useful feature.

Excellent point coreypolis, that happens all the time! What we see depends mainly on what we look for.
