NOTE - I am really, really, really annoyed at the camera makers not telling how their EVF works. What is so secret about it?

The user manual can typically be found online nowadays. There the different functions are explained. Although the manual of most camera-companies are at least as bad as those from Pentax...

? This feels like product bashing to me. I find their manuals to be pretty good on the whole and the camera menu system itself is excellent.

Enabling/disabling the exposure preview is commonplace. Enabling = preview of how the shot would look like, disabling would mean showing a visible picture, which can be very handy when working with studio flashes in an otherwise pretty dark studio. In both cases, the EVF-brightness can be adjusted to user's preferences.

Most cameras also have the option to show over/underexposure in the EVF, live histogram, etc.
