Using live Histogram to shoot to the far edge of the highlights will allow you in post to get the greatest tonal range (what is known as dmax). So hopefuly the 40d will include live histogram like the 1D-MKIII.

Live view is make or break for paparazzi-types who frequently shoot with the camera raised above the crowds, and sometimes on shoots you just get yourself into situations that make composing shots with the viewfinder a huge pain in the ass.

Like most features on modern cameras, it's more of a convenience thing.

I was surprised a few years back when I was looking to buy another camera that this live view was missing. I'm glad to see that it's becoming available - again.
