Originally posted by reh321 EVF can show image exactly as it will be captured - brightness, colors, dynamic range (*), and DOF - what more do you want to call it "WYSIWYG"???
(*) within limitation of display of course, but much closer than you are getting from OVF, which shows what is, rather than what will be captured.
This is completely untrue.
The footnote is even laughable - within limitation of display? But that is precisely the reason why you don't have real WYSIWYG (besides the limitation of image capture). The colors are off, dynamic range insufficient, the brightness often works against you, the resolution and general viewing conditions don't help with DoF. Then every frame has an exposure time while your image might have another, and so on.
Of course, the EVF fans will insist that the OVF "fails" at trying to be EVF i.e. at showing an approximation of a default-processed JPEG. And that point is about... information display
P.S. What
is might be more important to see than some lousy, low resolution approximation of a default-processed JPEG
