Z3 screen brightness when using camera

I noticed that when opening camera app, the screen brightness slowly fades down. This makes it difficult to see what you are actually shooting. Can't remember it was like this before lollipop update.

Do you have auto adjust brightness activated? and if the light is bright and shinning direct to the camera then yes some will adjust so the images aren't full of glare

This happens regardless of auto adjust and/or the set brightnes, and it's just when the camera is on. And to clarify, the interface in the camera app is also Darkened. The pictures are perfect. Is this maybe a feature to prevent overheat?

Possibly - I'm not an expert on photographs
