@AaronConnorM i bought nikon d5000 before but i trade in to t1i because i thght is more features thera but im wrong because nikon d5000 is easy to use than t1i,like this live view.
Do you need to focus in live view before you can take a shot or can you just use live view as a general guide before pressing the shutter button and taking the actual shot?
Is there a way to connect the camera to a laptop and actually view what the camera is recording on the laptop?

Nice demonstration - thanks for the video. I'm comparing this with Nikon's D3000. It looks to have the same live view implementation.

autofocus does work in video mode, just press the same button as when you're in live view.

I can confirm auto focus does work but its' extremely loud, manual is much better.
