And I believe on my 6D live view is only available in creative modes. Also JMO, but if you've got the money to spend on a 50D, you should know enough about your camera to never use the basic modes. Get comfortable in aperture and shutter priority modes, then move the M. Your camera should never be on that green square. *plink* *plink*

I might argue with you about that.... Years of doing this has taught me that aperture drive shutter speed, and aperture make the picture...
So, for sport where most folks want a small DoF, open-up that puppy, get the DoF you want, and the camera will go as fast as it can to get you that DoF. So I highly recommend it. Yes, you might get a bit of a blurr at time, but the alternative was an underexposed pic.
And last, between ISO and aperture, you can adjust the blur.
