When you use LiveView with modern lenses on the D810 does it show full aperture (wide open) or the stopped down aperture (that you have selected, assuming you don't have the lens set to wide open).

When you enter LiveView the camera stops down (so that you see the depth of field that you'd get in the final image). However, if you want to see the scene with the lens wide open you can hit the Pv button (the button that give you a depth of field preview if you are not in LiveView and you are looking through the viewfinder). The same Pv button will give you a wide open view in Movie LiveView as well. The Pv button is the upper button on the front side of the body that is accessed by your right hand.

Hope that answers your question.

Thats a huge help. Do you have to hold the PV button or just press it once?

Just press it once each shot. I wish there was a setting that allowed you to have it default to full aperture.

Similar question. Can you on the 810 (or 800 for that matter I can't figure it out) on LV change the exposure and have it show on screen how it'll look when the photo is taken? Reason being when I'm shooting in-camera B&Ws, sometimes the exposure doesn't work out the same for colour and B&W shots, or one doesn't look as good using the same settings.

Read the manual, in liveview you can press ok button to have real exposure.
