P4K focusing feature request.

PostFri Oct 19, 2018 9:50 am

Hi there,

Two requests for future updates to the pocket 4k to make native MFT glass usable in more shooting scenarios.

1, Is it possibly to have a lens option page where you can adjust the lens acceleration to your liking?

2, (I think this may have already been requested but) Is it possible to get savable focus points, A, B , C, D etc so we can easily pull from point to point and adjust the focus pull speed? Would work really well with the large touch screen to easily touch each letter to pull to the set point.

Cheers!

Ryan.

Absolutely! how fantastic would it be to be able to set focus points, block them with the crew and have someone pull from an ipad! Would be amazing for indie/ new film makers, electronic follow focuses are expensive yo!

The tech is there, might as well harness it. Hopefully the P4K can be allowed to shift focus while recording!
