love it or hate it?

I bought this gem of a camera at Christians in Action the other day. I thought I'd just put it on a shelf in my office or something. Then, today when I was cleaning it, I noticed the very cool way I could see the world through the viewfinder. See Mason?
So, imagine a cute couple kissing in the viewfinder or a family laughing or a cute senior making a silly face?
Is that cool? Or is it too small an image for the subject? I know I could zoom in but then I'd lose the coolness of the camera... So, opinions please!
