EXPOSURE SIMULATION
In Live View mode, the Exposure Simulation displays the effect of the selected exposure settings (Aperture, Shutter and ISO) and how these settings changes the photo. It is an approximation (a close but not exact example) of how the final captured photo will

look. If you, for example in Manual exposure mode (M), select a smaller Aperture, the Live View displays a darker image. If you select a more open Aperture, the Live View displays an image that is lighter.
When in the A, S and P exposure modes, you can use Exposure Simulation to see the effect of an exposure adjustment before you capture the photo. As an example, a Quick Adjust of +1.0 steps results in a clearly lighter photo exposure.
Note!
When you use the camera with a flash, the Exposure Simulation will not display a correct result. For example, if you have set the Aperture and Shutter to be adapted to flashlight indoors, normally the Exposure Simulation displays an image that is too dark in the Live View mode. It is advised to turn off Exposure Simulation before you start to take photos with a flash.

Overexposure Warning
Mark Overexposure: 
Note!
If Exposure Simulation is active and the exposure settings are set to very high overexposure or very low underexposure for the actual light conditions, the Live View displays a very light or very dark image.
In extreme cases, it results in a completely overexposed white image or a completely underexposed black image. In these cases you can use the balance scale, down to the left in Live View mode, while adjusting the exposure settings, to maintain desired exposure.
Note!
When Autofocus is active and analysing the subject, the Exposure Simulation is deactivated to let the Autofocus system operate in optimal conditions. When the Autofocus process is ready, the Exposure Simulation is automatically activated again.
