X-T2 FEATURE REQUEST - AUto Focus Speed

[rgerst]

I am reposting this from another x forum as I am hoping Fuji will see this if no one has already requested:

 

I love the auto focus - it's terrific- but, I feel TOO fast for cinematic-like focus pulls when one operator / cinephotographer is shooting moving picture work.

 

It's a dead giveaway it's on auto, with one operator.

I would like to make a feature request in a firmware update for two additional slower modes for continuous auto focusing: 

Just "slower" and "slowest" 
or maybe "cine", and thin slowest called something like "slow".

The current snappy pull simply does not look like a typical focus pull for a filmmaker.

It is set up for snap pulls- which can work for action - but optimized for stills work, less so for motion.

Adding these options would be a huge benefit to single-person run and gun operators , eg those who shoot short film, documentary etc, 
and automagically also enable the operator to better adjust framing on the fly to help ensure the focus pull locks onto the intended target . . . .

Adding this feature, plus FLOG to the SD card (PLEASE try to keep it 4:2:2!) would make the X-T2 KILLER.

LOVING the XT2 so far.
