Panasonic's new LUMIX DMC-GF5 gains a higher resolution 3.0-inch 920,000-dot high-precision touch display than last year's GF3 Micro Four Thirds release
Although the camera boasts a newly-developed 17.3 x 13.0 mm Live MOS sensor, the megapixel count is the same as last year's model - at 12.1 effective megapixels
Panasonic has taken the wraps of its new LUMIX DMC-GF5 Micro Four Thirds digital camera
HD movie recording can be activated by a dedicated video record button on the top of the GF5
The GF5 gets a new Scene Guide that offers 23 sample pictures shot by professionals, a user chooses the photo closest to the shooting situation and the camera automatically applies optimal settings based on that choice
The GF5 features a stereo microphone with wind-cut and a built-in mono speaker
There has been quite a bit of pre-announcement discussion about what kind of features might be added to Panasonic's latest member of its LUMIX G Series of Micro Four Thirds digital cameras. As it transpired, the new LUMIX DMC-GF5 interchangeable lens camera was not the marked improvement on last year's GF3 that we'd hoped it would be. That said, it has been given a new sensor and rehashed imaging engine, an improved user interface with the opportunity to automatically optimize settings based on images snapped by professional photographers, and it will be available with a power zoom kit lens.
