    I think that it is possible. But.
    We don't know anything today. I could tell something about this after dumping.
    I know that 25p is top priority :-)

    HI Vitaliy, (posted this on DVX also - please feel free to ignore one or the other)
    Is 25p for the HDMI output possible/reasonable?
    Best

    ect mode at higher ress would be nice having 3k or something.... also using 2/3 sensor mode would open posibilities to new lenses

    All I wanted to say is that this fix can be surprisingly large.

    As changing logic here could be not so easy as it looks on first sign :-)

    Yes, because I often toggle the setting during Live View to see if the zoom would work for a shot. Having to go through a pointless menu defeats the convenience of the Fn key. So it should just toggle : ).

    Of course Panny should fix this themselves, but I guess they're not rushing to release firmware updates ; ).

    Is it so important then?

    Well no, because you can't change the setting during the shot anyway. And I doubt this could be changed, as it probably involves changing the sensor mode and that would cause a glitch. So the ON/OFF menu is pointless.

    it would be great: after focusing with touch (in video mode) - return to normal mode after two-four seconds, without half-pressing the shutter button. sorry for bad english)

    >It would also be nice to have the ex tele convertor function while recording

    Yes, it'll be nice.
    But only after dumping and reversing we'll know if this is possible.

    >A simple ETC enhancement would be instant switching when the function is assigned to an Fn key. Right now you have to OK the change with an ON/OFF menu, which is a total waste of time

    I see pluses and minuses here. And perfectly understand that accident key press can ruin your shot if you make it instant.

    A simple ETC enhancement would be instant switching when the function is assigned to an Fn key. Right now you have to OK the change with an ON/OFF menu, which is a total waste of time.

    It would also be nice to have the ex tele convertor function while recording

    I don't know if it is possible but:
    i had a canon compact camera (sx200) and i was able, with chdk hacked firmware to select a wider range range of iso settings than with the original firmware, also iso 10 for example. If it is possible it should be one of the greatest improvement (no need of ND filter). Obviously the most important improvement now is 25p, but also the af tracking during video.

    Thank you so much Vitaliy!

    Obviously higher bitrate :)

    Also, it'd be cool to be able to control the "Zebra bar" function. Rather than it blinking at 100%, it would be cool if you could pick a percentage for highlights to start blinking at.
