GH3 GH3 Ergonomic / Usage questions

Hi, I have a couple of questions for GH3 users that I haven't been able to find a clear answer to.

1) Is there a focus assist mode? Peaking? Focal distance readout? Punch in?
2) What exposure tools are there? Histo? RGB Parade? Zebras?
3) What size is the HDMI port?
4) How is focusing on the flip out LCD? On the OVF?
5) Audio meters and monitoring?

Thanks
 
1) no peaking, no focal distance read out but there is a magnify to focus. Don't think it works during recording (I rarely use it so not sure)
2) Exposure tools are histogram and a flashing highlights on areas that are blown out.
3) mini HDMI
4) I have no problem focusing on LCD in most situations but the EVF can be tricky depending on eye placement. more finicky than GH2
5) yes headphone monitoring options and levels on screen *

*The biggest gripe I have with the GH3 is that the display drops on screen info after 10-20secs and you have to touch the screen or a button to bring it back. I really am hoping they fix this with a firmware update as otherwise the camera is one of my favourite to use.
