Hello yoyoma

When you will do flash pictures, or you use studio light, I will mention this point:

With my K1 in the M mode, I get such an LV 'brightness' :

When you use a flash or studio light, your camera setting for the ambience light can let the LV monitor be black ! (BTW: during the camera do focusing all get well visible and also during a DOF view)

This problem you get with an EVF too !

You can of cause bright up than your EVF....but it look's noisy than.

You can get also in other troubles, like this thread shows: AF-C, stop down the lens in AF-C (Nikon and Sony do that), refresh rate of the EVF during focusing, dark or noisy EVF, eye AF in such a situation, ...

Re: autofocus issues: Nikon Z Mirrorless Talk Forum: Digital Photography Review (dpreview.com)

(read the thread and not only this answer, but this answer described the OP's problem )

I do post this not for to say a OVF is better, with an EVF camera you simple use an other way, but you should know about this problem- or - other behavior - when using a flash or studio light.

best regards KPM2
