Something doesn't sound very right (or very wrong) here.
1. Yes, you still can use your 1000mm (I hope it's a good 1000mm lens else
may not worth the weight) if you go with the same camera system with same
lens mount
2. Same with your 1000mm lens nothing can stop you from using your fisheye
len. Matter fact, if your 1000mm is worth 6-10+ grands then you can
always
sell it to get a brand new set of lens.
3. And no, you do not have to look at the LCD screen, I have been using
digital camera for over a decade but I don't stare at LCD screen. And you
can see many professionals (like re****ters) on TV they don't have the eyes
glued to LCD screen either.
And your biggest problem may not be LCD screen and similar, but it could
be the post processing knowledge which is one of the biggest reasons why
many old goats have to stick with film because it's way too much for them
to
learn.
