A guidebook from Thom Hogan also seems to suggest that the final image, simulating the additional input of flash, is not previewed in EVF. I have no knowledge on how more recent models of these MILC or strobes handle that pre exposure EVF scenario.

How could that ever  be possible? The camera would  have to know the settings of the on and off-camera  flashes (possible), and the use of any light modifiers, and the reflectivity of surrounding surfaces. It would have to crunch all this data to imagine the result, then show it to you in the EVF. How is this an improvement over taking a test shot and vewing the result?
