Some manager from Panasonic said in connection with the launch of the GH3 that is was a question of programming resources, and that they simply didn't have enough people available before the launch. That might be an excuse though. Maybe the real reason is that they want to sell their own AF lenses rather than making the cameras easier to use with lenses that they won't make a dime on. The situation is somewhat different for Sony, since they can't offer the same wide range of lenses that Panalympus have available.Regarding the legacy lens support, why hasn't the m43 camp used focus peaking? I suppose it's not a technical reason, but rather about patent cost or something. Has any m43 exec said anything officially?
I'm torn between buying into m43 and NEX and wish there was a format that combined their best aspects.
It is apparently fixable with a firmware update.
