Thanks.  I did this briefly last night at a very close distance and it worked.  I want to test more at regular recording distances and see how it goes.

Can someone describe the settings under which they achieve this? My GH5 does not apply focus correction as I zoom. I've tried different settings with both my 35-100 2.8 I and 12-35 2.8 II. ...

1080 60p may indeed be great.  But 4k 60p is awesome.  I got a GH5 partially just for 4k 60p, and I'm never going back.

Well, that would be awesome.  I will have to read that thread closely and run some tests.

I record dance performances and sometimes theater performances. In both cases, I can easily get the entire stage / dance area into focus.  But when I change focal length, focus is lost.  Note that ...

I voted no. It uses two batteries, has a built in vertical grip, and seems to be very rugged and well sealed. If those features are important to you, the alternatives are more expensive.  Or if you ...

Even better. I wanted a single camera to shoot both photos and video, and wanted a GH5 for 4k 60p, and couldn't justify getting two complete kits of lenses. So I sold my Canon gear and switched ...

Terrific choices. I had a 70d with a 10-18, 18-135 and 55-250 (and other EOS lenses). I now have a GX85 with the 12-32 and 45-150 (and other micro 4/3 lenses). The Panasonic is far superior for ...

Ho-hum. What is the point of Canon mentioning 8k video? Could it be because they are behind basically every other company with regard to video resolution, and have no consumer 4k cameras that use...

Is this advertising campaign a farce, the only goal being to get people to see how beautiful Jackson Hole is and to get more tourists? It just doesn't make sense to me otherwise. If they really...

I have not tried the PL 12-60.  It very quickly stops down.  And I prefer to have a two lens solution all at 2.8, then a single slower lens with less reach.  If I wanted a longer zoom, I'd ...

I agree, I would like a touch screen.  What I don't like about the new LX100 is that when recording in 4k the view is cropped.  I do a fair amount of video, so I think simply because of that I ...

I have the LX100 mk1, GX85 and GH5.  And I bought them in that order about a year between each.  I got the GH5 this past summer.  My thoughts: The LX100 is probably the most fun to use.  Fantastic ...

I have a GH5, and the joystick also doesn't move diagonally.  It would be nice if that was a firmware update, and perhaps with a setting for folks who don't want to be able to move diagonally.

Really folks - if you don't want a buy a $3k camera, then there is a simple answer: don't buy it! Nobody will think worse of you. It appears that Olympus' hope with this camera is nothing less than ...

Yes, I'm guilty.  My GH5 is a lot more than I need.  But I don't regret getting it.  I wanted super slo mo, and the form factor with joystick, and the unlimited recording time for theater.  No ...

I had a Canon APS-C DSLR, but wanted a camera which was equally good at photos and video. I quickly ruled out Sony APS-C:  it seems to me the lens lineup is not nearly as good as micro 4/3, ...

The point of me opening this thread was to get an adapter with near native lens focus ability. I would think Sigma should be able to do this for their own lenses. I don't think anyone would argue ...

Yes, I have the latest firmware.  I just re-examined my last set of tests with the lens.  The center image quality is actually pretty good. Away from the center half, the image quality degrades a ...

I have a wonderful Sigma 18-35.  I love the lens, and don't want to sell it even though I sold my Canon DSLR.  I sometimes use it it with a non-autofocus adapter on my GH5 / GX85.  I have a ...
