GH4 glitching and settings jump between custom modes whilst shooting!

I was on a shoot today and several times the settings kept jumping between C1 and C2, sometimes even whilst recording. Needless to say I wasn’t switching the dial, the settings were changing on their own. It happened quickly, back and forth a few times, as if glitching. Has this ever happened to anyone before?

While I haven’t had this particular issue, I can say that my GH4 is glitchy.  It’s on it’s 3rd logic board.  I’ve just retired it as I can’t trust it any more.  Definitely hasn’t been a reliable camera.

In your case, it sounds like the mode select switch may be dirty/faulty.
