May I suggest a hardware product or redesign for the YAGH interface? Its place and size can cause difficulties for some users: for example, one can't attach a set of 15mm rails and use devices like follow focus rigs. So I have two suggestions:

1) Redesign the interface's case to incorporate a 15mm rail system: it might add two or three centimeters to the YAGH interface's height.

2) Enable a remote connection to the YAGH interface: a small interface that attaches to the bottom of the camera, perhaps a centimeter high at most, and a cable that attaches to the YAGH interface somewhere nearby.

Sorry for the length of my previous questions & commentary. Here are my questions, in brief:

1. Will the GH4 be getting better support than the GH3?

2. Will the GH4 be getting more/regular firmware updates other than the showstopper bug fixes the GH3 received?

3. Can you see the value in providing 1 and 2 above?

I am going to buy YAGH just to take it to pieces and convince myself that most of YAGH's inside is empty space. After that I am going to throw it away.

1) Is Panasonic aware of loosing key advantage of m43: p o r t a b i l i t y ? (YAGH 'brick' case) 2) Is Panasonic aware of loosing portability due to 4:2:0 internal codec?

So many in this thread just sound greedy and or clueless whiners.

For me - looks ok.

Btw, if it was not asked yet:

• Panasonic have any plans considering fixing horrible plastic skin tones produced by m43 cameras?

Sorry, could not resist.

• Will panasonic create a YAGH system with just XLR and battery grip ?

• +1 @CFreak "Any plans for a servo powered zoom, like on an ENG camera ?"

• What will be next to replace AF101 in the future ?

Could Panasonic consider making electronic EF-m43 lens adapter-focal reducer?

I am constantly changing the settings on my G6 because the fn buttons are too easily pressed (especially when used for still photography in portrait orientation). I would like to see an option to require that two buttons must be simultaneously depressed before a setting is changed. Would this be possible with a firmware update?

I really enjoy using the DMW-GWC1 wide angle adapter but it does introduce some distortion which is not corrected in-camera like with other Panasonic lenses. Would it be possible to add a menu option so we can "tell" the camera when the DMW-GWC1 is attached and have the camera correct the distortion?

I would like to ask :

1. why gh4 has no 2,35:1 cropmarks, or letterboxes for framing?
2. Any plans implementing this function?
3. Why panasonic didn´t implemented LOG color profile for gh4?

thanks

The GH4 seems to have a very complete package. Pretty great actually and already very little to be desired.

Here is my list coming from GH2. I don't know if these things already exist on GH4/GH3/GX7 I've used Magic Lantern a lot before and some features I really miss.

• widely available in April (Please,please get me one for my full month Masai Mara safari shoot in Kenya in June)
• full sensor width 4k (I would prefer cropfactor 2 or better less)
• selectable colours for focus peaking (can't see tiny red dots very well due to decreased sensitivity for tiny red/green spots), set sensitivity level, select colour/bw background and available in all modes including ex tele, focus assistant
• build in ND would be very handy
• EV value at focus point for quick exposure for skin tones
• blue zebras underexposure, red overexposure. Set sensitivity level.
• RGB histogram with red/blue/green dots appearing at clipping point and numbers for amount of 1/3 stops over exposed for each colour. (linear/log view ML style)
• trap focus (release shutter/rec when subject is in focus at a pre set focus point)
• HDR timelapse in 4k silent mode
• wireless follow focus on AF stepping motor with the mobile app wifi, also program rack focus between hard focus points. Set point A and point B and rack speed.
• turn tablet into full field monitor. Make the tablet compute overlay features that are missing in camera.

Is there anyway to disable the 12-35mm exposure changes while zooming, eg provide a function to lock physical aperture?

PS: I noticed that the 12-35 isn't a real constant aperture lens that Panasonic forced it to close down at the wide end, during a video shoot, slow zooming on the lens makes exposure jumps that is so disturbing.

Here's my question, why all the crappy batteries? Isn't this bad for the environment?

My couple of questions related to the Panasonic m43 cameras.

• Any plans for the USB3 port? How about to provide an application programming interface (API] for tethering via WiFi and USB ports?

• Any plans for a MFT camera with support of external GH4-type EVF? Can the external EVF be sold together with a camera as a kit option (with some discount)?
