I took a moment to look up this lens, because the range looks interesting...
I noticed that the focus works electronically; that is, the focus ring doesn't seem to be physically coupled to the lens mechanism, but instead "focuses by wire", electronically. On a camera like, say, the GH2, touching the focus ring automatically magnifies the view of the subject, and drives the motorized focus mechanism.
Will this still allow manual focusing on the BMPCC, or is that functionality lost - much like aperture control is lost on certain Canon lenses, like the 10-22mm zoom?
