I have a GX7 and LX100 that I use for stills and video. I'm trying to set it up to allow me to readjust focus using auto-focus (AF-S) when shooting video. When I had my Olympus cameras, it was quite easy to reset the focus automatically when recording was ongoing, but after many tries, I cannot get this functionality working on my Panasonic cameras!

I have AF-S setup to work on the back AF/AE Lock as well as the shutter half-press. It works correctly with both cameras in AF and MF (manual switch) mode BEFORE starting recording, but as soon as I start recording, neither button will cause the camera to refocus.

Under Motion Picture Menu I have: AFS/AFF/AFC : AFS Continuous AF: On

Under Custom: AF/AE Lock : AF-ON Shutter AF : ON Half Press Release : OFF Quick AF : OFF Eye Sensor AF : OFF Focus/Release Priority : RELEASE AF+MF : ON MF Assist : BOTH Constant Preview : ON

Thanks for any help!
