Does your LCD screen flash when focusing with the R5?

I noticed whenever the R5 uses the focus assist beam or has trouble focusing the viewfinder or LCD screen flashes bright white for a moment before the picture is taken. There is no white flash if the beam does not fire or there is plenty of light.

Can you guys please confirm this is normal behavior? Why the white flash?

Really appreciate some feedback. Thanks!

Have you got exposure simulation turned on?

As I haven’t seen this on mine, as far as I can remember, and that’s turned off?

I wondered why the ball kept getting bigger, then it hit me.
