I'm adding IK Fingers to the armature. Do you prefer to control the rotation of the fingers through the IK Poles or with the same IK handles? Personally I think with the IK Pole you get more precise and consistent rotations, the down side is that you have more bones to animate. Let me know.

I like fingering artists

Go for what you think is best, I prefer the first option

I really don't understand why most chose control rotation with IK pole. For fingers, speed and usability are in most cases more important than maximum precision, so same IK handles seems a better choice to me. The rig doesn't need very technical hand control, we're not animating Pixar's Soul anytime soon so why not keep it simple? Whatever the crowd wants though...
