About the performance of Face Recognition function Recognition performance varies greatly depending on shooting conditions, i.e., according to factors such as angles, facial expression and lighting, so operation under all conditions cannot be guaranteed. Because the camera searches for faces that are similar to registered faces, there are cases where the faces are not correctly recognized when the registered image and the shooting image varies much. When facial characteristics are similar, particularly between parents and their children or brothers and sisters, the camera may not distinguish the faces.

Endless Evolution

LUMIX revolutionized the SLR camera in 2008 by eliminating the mirror — marking the world's fi rst Digital Single Lens Mirrorless (DSLM) camera. In addition to making the body and lens smaller and lighter, the new camera achieved better handling and higher-quality images and performance. In 2012, the DMC-G5 took the next major step. Inheriting all previous innovations, it added new image rendering capabilities and nimble mobility, while also optimizing video performance. Once again, mirrorless technology is driving system camera evolution.

16.05-megapixel High-Speed, High-Performance Digital Live MOS Sensor Venus Engine

Panasonic has added its original pixel mix technology and the The Venus Engine applies advanced signal inherent high speed of the CMOS sensor to the 16.05-megapixel processing to both photos and video, and attains Digital Live MOS Sensor. Processing is further designed to minimize exceptional noise-reduction performance with the noise generation in the new sensor. Finer wiring around the combination of 3D Noise Reduction (3DNR) and photodiode achieves a higher aperture ratio, which results in higher Multi-process Noise Reduction (MNR) systems. A total of four resolution and an excellent S/N ratio while a new high-performance CPUs work in tandem to quickly process the digital signals for transistor speeds up signal processing. Taking full advantage of the these advanced noise reduction systems, and the signals for Digital Live MOS Sensor and Venus Engine, images can be shot in 1,920 x 1,080 Full-HD progressive video recording and high- low lighting at the high ISO sensitivity setting of 12800. speed burst shooting.

The Dust Reduction System in the The HDR function overlays several still images that are DMC-G5 helps eliminate this possibility by placing a Supersonic- consecutively shot at different exposure levels to produce Wave Filter in front of the Digital Live MOS Sensor, between a single composite image without blown highlights (over- the low-pass fi lter and the shutter. Vibrating vertically around exposure) or blocked shadows (under-exposure). 80,000 times per second, the fi lter effectively repels dust and other particles.
