    They sure do! In fact, they remember your manual focus clutch position if you switch back to AF, too, so if you set your Mf ring to one point, switch to AF, then focus to a different point, simply moving the focus back to MF will snap your focus straight to that second point. Kind of interesting for when you need a quick pull.

    That's great!

    I've used all three pro zooms, and only use them. The 12-40 and the 7-14 are the best, they really do respond like a regular lens with a follow focus. The 40-150 is still usable, it gets a bit jumpy when focusing near infinity though

    In manual focus mode, do they remember the focus position when turning off/on the camera?   (my panasonic lenses don't)

  3. I went for the following combo & really impressed:

    Hoya IR/UV cut filter - amazing, it really does the trick.

    Genus Eclipse - really surprised me how good it was & saves me a lot of time changing filters.

     

    Do you have the IR/UV cut in front or behind the ND Fader?

    Is there any difference? (how it handles reflections/glares from lightsources etc.)

  4. Yes it's a great camera! I recently did a documentary and the ergonomics are great together with the 12-35 2.8 lens (besides the hard eye-cup...)

    I used to shoot with natural but switched to try to see if skintones improved, but now with this fix I will go back to natural I think.

    Try the fix, your skin tones might get even better! :)

     

    According to this test, natural and portrait has about the same dynamic range but portrait has more red present.

  5. Hello!

    As other has mentioned when recording video there is a colorshift as soon as you press the rec-button on G6. When comparing a photo jpeg to the h264-file the colors differ a lot, its like magenta is replaced with yellow, red tones towards magenta look orange.
    When trying to match in Final Cut by adding magenta I got a magenta cast in the rest of the image..
    In 5d2RGB I tried different settings to transcode the h264-file, found a fix!, When using "ITU-R BT.601" in Decoding Matrix magenta gets back and the image looks almost exactly like the still-jpeg (and correct).
    Attatched images is exported frames from Premiere Pro CS6, they look the same i Final Cut 7. I was about to give up on the G6, the skin colors looked so weird.
