Olympus E-1 Viewfinder and focus

Hello, bought used Olympus E-1 with 14-54 2.5:3.8 lense and I think the camera is not working right. It might just be me, I used Sony A3000 in the past, with manual auto chinon 50mm lense and everything was fine and easy, I could focus on moving object with that prime lense after some practice and basically photographic anything I wanted from portraits to landscape.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure if this camera is working correctly...Does the viewfinder suppose not do anything? What I'm saying is, when I adjust my settings from let's say 100 iso to 500 iso, nothing on the viewfinder changes, after taking picture, its obviously overexposed, but viewfinder show me this very crisp and clear picture. Second thing the focus, I focus on something, it's perfect through the viewfinder but blurry or not focused at all in the computer or lcd screen...It's really frustating.

I had really high hopes by reading all kinds of reviews and was looking forward to using this camera, but after trying out for a few hours I don't feel the same way.
