The camera currently does not report capture abilities over PTP.

A large set of Panasonic / Lumix does not support remote control over USB.

If there is remote capture support under Windows or MacOS it would be good to know for us.

The camera does not appear to have remote capture support over USB. (Remote capture should work over Wi-Fi / NFC using Panasonic's smartphone app.)
