    How accurate and sharp is GH2’s “Touch AF” rack focusing? It could be a great substitute for the expensive follow focus…

    It does work. I’ve only played with it a little bit. You need to be using a compatible AF lens, which are all pretty slow at this point. There is some good potential there, though.

    It does work though is a bit abrupt and can sometimes go way out of focus first. If your shooting something repeatable then it’s not too bad as you can have a second go at it
