When I am in replay mode (to view footage already shot), what physical button can I press to start playing the footage? I keep pressing on the Menu button because it seems natural to me, but the only way it works is to press the play icon on the screen. I don't understand why the Menu button does not start Play, since it works like that on most cameras I owned.

On previous GH cameras the centre top position of the control dial would act as a play button when in playback mode, still awaiting Gh5's arrival here to be sure

Can anyone give me a tip as to why are we waiting up to a month in Australia  for delivery when the camera has launched in the rest of the world ? (I'm a tad over excited to receive my preorder)

That's odd considering NZ seemed to be the first location they landed..?

Guys, looking at the specs it looks like the GH5 doesn't have 30 minute recording limit in EU/UK -- is this correct!? If so it will be the first GH product I've bought from UK.

Correct, there are no limits on recording duration on the GH5 in the UK

I don't know, maybe with a Metabones T Smart Adapter, but I was referring to the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 Contemporary lens for micro 4/3, not he Art lens for EF.

That makes sense

Good news  so looks like rumors of 22nd were true...

Where has it arrived?

That would be a cool feature. I wonder how well the Sigma 30mm 1.4 will focus with the feature. You can have some pretty shallow shots wide open if the focus pull works with 3rd Party AF lenses.

Will the touch focus be available on non native lenses?

So, looks like Pana really can't handle the release date. It was march 20th for europe, but I have been told from the CS of CVP that still no information about the stocking of gh5. Amazon says "dispatching from 1 to 2 months", lol :D #theNewBlackmagic :D

I spoke to a store in the UK yesterday and they said that Panasonic date they had was (week commencing) 20th March and that they still expected the cameras this week.

I believe the GH5 has the ability to send the LUT applied footage out through hdmi so should be able to record baked in with an external recorder, not sure why you would? except James Miller @vimeo has had some interesting results with baked in (better looking) than post applied LUTs.

Hi Aaron,
