Hi! 

I'm a landscape photographer who just bought the GFX 100s with a 20-35mm, and I already love this system! Of course, even after a couple of readings of the manual, I still have so much to learn and test.

There is one function that I feel could be really useful, but I'm not 100% sure it really works as I have in mind.

So let's say I'm taking a landscape picture, and I want to take advantage of the Hyperfocal distance to maximize my DOF. Let's say I'm at 20mm and f/16: for that combination, from the app/google/table/.. it results that my hyperfocal distance is 0.67m

If I well understood, If I use the live view with the MF Distance Indicator function (the "blue bar"), if I move the focus ring I get a previsualization of DOF with the blue bar. BUT if I reach the "0.67m area", the bar doesn't show the hyperfocal range (so from 0.37 to infinite). Is it correct like that? So it's just that hyperfocal distances are not implemented in the firmware? Or Am I missing something and if I use the MF Distance Indicator to reach around 0.67m I'm not actually focusing at that distance?

Thank you!
