If u have one and experiment let me know thanks
BuddynPups, your camera has a sensor that turns your viewfinder (EVF) and/or rear LCD on/off when you put your eye to the viewfinder, depending on how you have it configured. It is true that both EVF and LCD aren't active at the same time, but why would you want it to be that way? Anyway what you need to do is:
Go to the Wrench 3 menu item (see the image I posted earlier); select "Screen/viewfinder Display" and tap or click it with the "Set" button; pick "Auto 2 (Auto switching)". This will make it so you automatically switch to the EVF when you look through it during "image playback". When you take your eye away from the EVF, the image will be viewable on the rear LCD.
You can try this yourself. After making these settings, pull up an image on your LCD for viewing. Now look through your viewfinder. You will see your image in there and the rear LCD will go blank. This also works with settings INFO if you have that displayed on the LCD.
