https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/EOS-DSLR-Mirrorless-Cameras/Rebel-t7-live-view-is-darker-than-reality/m-p/434190#M104246 <P>So I've been using a helios 44m lens with my rebel t7 (2000d) for a few months now, and everything was perfectly fine until today. I was using the kit lens yesterday and just switched back, and now the live view isn't the same as the photo it takes. With auto iso everything is perfect, but as soon as I manually set it to anything, live view just darkens everything. The exposure meter works just fine. And without live view it's really hard to shoot mf. With the kit lens everything is fine</P> Thu, 31 Aug 2023 08:23:12 GMT jakus4 2023-08-31T08:23:12Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/EOS-DSLR-Mirrorless-Cameras/Rebel-t7-live-view-is-darker-than-reality/m-p/434190#M104246 <P>So I've been using a helios 44m lens with my rebel t7 (2000d) for a few months now, and everything was perfectly fine until today.

Is there an option for exposure simulation that needs to be turned on?</P> Thu, 31 Aug 2023 12:32:37 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/EOS-DSLR-Mirrorless-Cameras/Rebel-t7-live-view-is-darker-than-reality/m-p/434201#M104247 jrhoffman75 2023-08-31T12:32:37Z
