Now that one of these cameras has a movie auto focus ability is it possible to port the ability over to other models? And to allow normal lenses instead of the STM lenses?

I'm not a Dev. I was just wondering if its on anyone's radar for future projects.

I would think there would be a way to lock shutter, aperture, ISO, and WB and have the camera search for focus.

maybe if we figure out how 650D does it. I don't see why its not possible as ff already works. Just auto  focus in live view for me really sucks.

Hmm... maybe have it work like track focus + follow focus ability.

Press focus in one direction with variable speeds.
Focus stops when highest focus/edge sharpness is achieved in the box.

It was there, was unreliable, nobody used it, nobody was unhappy when I've removed it.

Oh. I'm new to ML. Only been here since 2.2.

I guess that answers that. Lol
