>>68515 From your post, I assume that the only exposure (no pun intended) you've had to film was, at most, a disposable 35mm camera. Most digital cameras don't have the "swivel screen" (though most camcorders do) and the "live preview" was often delayed on digital cameras, even if only by a fraction of a second. Toss in the delay between pressing the shutter release and the image actually being taken, and... well... it's your call who's the winner.
The only situation I can think of where I couldn't get a shot from laying down, changing lenses, or repositioning my body would be a MySpace-like self portrait. I'd suggest either the use of a self-timer or a remote if switching to a wide-angle lens and decent lighting weren't enough.
BTW, it isn't that real men get down on their knees... it's that real photographers will take the necessary steps to get the shot they're looking for.
