Isn't there a setting in the camera for that? At least that's how it works on the Oly E-M5ii.

Like the warm colors. And to think that reviewers always complain about Lumix SOOC colors...

I don't think there's something as immediate as with Pentax quick shift lenses. On my G95, there's a setting in the menus called AF+MF, the way it works is you first autofocus and then if you keep holding the AF button you can fine tune focus. Or you can switch to MF from the camera, and then back button focus give some limited settings for autofocus. The 100-400 behaves the same as my other Pana lenses.

There's an MF-AF button on the lens. It's a slide forward or back style switch.

The GX85 was a turning point for Panasonic. All the cameras since have shared the great colors, quite a far cry from the days of, say, the GX1 I used to shoot with.

The GX1 isn’t great with jpg colors, but the gx7 is a gem. I think the improvements came earlier than you think.

I’ve liked all but the GX1. My lx-7 for example is even good in this way.
