You cant neither see focus and even less so depth of field on an EVF with WYSIWYG functionality.

What you talk about is the various ways in which an EVF can offer to nail focus and to display the DoF, such as magnification, focus peaking, and on Fujifilm cameras digital split screen and digital micro prism. Focus peaking also makes depth of field visible. Thats not WYSIWYG though, thats an extra display of information.

About exposure, you mention a histogram and thats *also* not WYSIWYG.

The only things that you can WYSIWYG on an EVF is white balance, which is pretty irrelevant if you shoot raw anyway and can be checked on any digital camera by taking an image and chimping it, and exposure which only works within limitations.

I repeat my point. EVF are in no way different from the backside monitor of any digital camera. Neither offers WYSIWYG.

 

I think you ought to try the SL or CL. Or if you have, you're trying a different one from me!

The EVF brightness varies with your exposure settings. I adjust my exposure settings to get the brightness I want, then check the histogram and blinkies to make sure there are no blown highlights. And I can see DoF in the EVF with a lens set at the taking aperture - which a M lens always is. (Focus magnification is still WYSIWYG: you're focusing off part of the sensor and that is the same focus as your image will end up with.)

If you want to define WYSIWYG as the view in the EVF being identical to what you will see on your monitor after downloading the raw file and converting, I can't argue with you. A more practical approach is to accept that what you see in the EVF (no mag, no peaking, no histogram) is an easy way to directly see the exposure, focus and depth of field - that's WYSIWYG enough for me - and it works - I do it.

I took the old girl out for a spin today. She had a go on the MP and M9.  Here are some from the M9.

Really nice pictures Albert

I agree. I particularly like "abstractm on the lake". It has the "pictorialism" look I was attempting with my 2 previous posts. I did not use the filter in those, and both were at approx f/3,4

I seem to use the spot for most picutres now as it gives them true uniformity.

The pictures you see on this site are actually lighter on my screen... I will try to brighten the three pictures and will resubmit.
