Hi Mehmet, EVF blackout is NOT due to anything having to do with the rear screen. Did you use my links to purchase your a1? If not, you might consider joining the SONY Alpha a1 Set-up and Info Group (as detailed in most recent blog posts). You will learn a ton about your expensive camera.

with love, artie

I too have had the blackout problems with my A1. I have spent a lot of effort getting one of the first ones and was hugely disapointed when it first happened. I have a fealing it might be due to the tilting screen kept in a tilted position. Even if minutely not secured in place due to sand particles etc, I think the camera thinks tha back screen is beeing used and blacks out the evf. This is just a theory though. Hope they resolve it if my theory is incorrect.
