Panasonics new Post Focus feature
If you happen tow own the GX8,G7 or FZ300 camera than the new firmware update will allow you to use the new Post Focus feature. Dpreview tested it and writes:
This is a pretty impressive piece of technology, and it certainly does exactly what Panasonic says it will. But in reality, Panasonic is one of the least in need of a don’t-miss-the-subject focus bracketing feature, as it already offers a highly accurate autofocus system with very capable AF tracking.
It is true that many of us are keen to have pictures with more than 8MP in them, but on holiday and snapshot occasions eight is often more than we really need. For occasions that require larger images we’ll just have to wait for the arrival of 8K Raw video in this camera line. I’m not sure that the Post Focus feature will be something people buy Lumix cameras especially to get, but alongside the 4K Photo 30fps stills mode, it is another clever side benefit of having high resolution video.
