 Hi, this is Louis with The Verge. We're here with Barney, a product manager at Panasonic, to demonstrate the new Lumix G5. So we're here at the Getty Gallery with the new Lumix G5 camera. This is the latest in our lineup of DS LEM cameras. It's a 16-megapixel micro-forward sensor. But what you'll notice about this camera, first of all, is its unique design and shape. So different to previous cameras in our range, we've got a brand new hand grip. It's recessed and gives the customer a much easier grip, a more ergonomic feel and balance to the camera. The new feature for this camera is a function lever. When the power zoom lens is connected, this can actually control the zoom of the lens from the camera body. It also acts as a FN button, a function button. So you can actually assign a mode to this particular dial and you can access it through flicking playback through images or quick access to the quick menu. Other improved features of this camera, we have a high-resolution LCD screen, 920,000 dots. And a brand new feature that's helping us with this camera is the use or combination of the electronic viewfinder and the LCD at the same time. We call that touchpad. So you can actually chase a moving subject through the viewfinder and touch the autofocus on the LCD point, LCD screen at any time. Something that a lot of people are finding really useful in early previews. We also have improved image performance from this camera using our new 16 megapixel sensor. So we can actually shoot at ISO 12,800. And this camera is really quick. So we've got six frames a second at 16 megapixel or 20 frames a second at 4 megapixel. Also the movie functionality is massively improved. We have a dedicated movie button on the top of the camera and we can now capture 50p, 50 frames per second progressive in the AVCHD format. And we can also capture 25 frames a second in the MP4 format. So the Lumix G5 also boasts one of the world's fastest levels of autofocus. Simply half pressing the shutter and you can hear the double beep. That's the camera focusing around about 0.09 seconds. Not only is it fast, but in tests and independent labs it also performs to be one of the most accurate levels of autofocus as well as the quickest.
