Hi Max ... your English is better than my Italian.
If your live view is too dark or too bright, the cause may be that the camera is set to under-expose or over-expose.
To check, look in the upper part of the screen where it shows camera information.
Look for the number under EV. It should be close to zero.
It's underneath the red symbol in this example.

If it gets set to -2.0 or -3.0, that will underexpose photos by 2 or 3 stops and make the live view too dark.
If it gets set to +2.0 or +3.0, that will overexpose photos by 2 or 3 stops and make the live view too bright.
Use the right thumbwheel on the controller to dial it back to zero or close to zero.
