Wish someone teach me the newbie on using this machine, or even on photogarphy

1) first, is the lcd image the final light testing result ( or exposture recommendation...spare my terms, not sure the proper one!) after configuring various setting? So, I will have an image of what I see exactly displayed in the LCD? Is this the way DC to "tell us what's the proper exposture of a photo?.....if yes...

- then I find out when I use A60, I can't get what I see in the LCD, sometimes over and somtimes okay. (I try both the manual and the p mode), but just somehow I can't get what image/phot I will have when I check the LCD, it make me puzzled alot, kinda like betting on what I should have.....with no clue..yet

- when I use my friend's mintoa digi 7i, I can have (almost everytime), what I see/configure via the LCD display...

- is my concept wrong? or what I should pay attention?

2) as a newbie, I just know how to either set the apparture or the shutter speed to make a photo look "normal", I have no sense on which setting is good for any particular occasion? Any tips for me to learn
