DPC Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Is it possible to magnify the manual focus while shooting video (like I can on my A7R II? I don't think so but wanted to check I haven't missed something. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DPC Posted October 19, 2016 Author Share Posted October 19, 2016 Yes, but while recording. And on the GX80. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heine Nielsen Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 While recording and in mf mode hit the left arrow to bring up the focus assist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think many people would love that, but it's just not the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heine Nielsen Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 No you are right. I tried this again when i got home yesterday, but the weird thing is that the left click actually does bring up the focus assist but only gives the option to resize the focus assist window but does not actually activate the closeup feature. It's like something is missing. What would be the purpose of being able to resize when you cannot activate the window? Or maybe I just don't understand what it's supposed to do?
