16 Jul 2015 8:07AMDear Panasonic you are taking gradual steps and thank you for converting the silver or copper stripe on the lens to black as I had suggested... for FZ48... Can you please now MARK on the extracting body of the lens the respective distances from the sensor as other makers like Fuji and Sony do?
