Thus, the G5 can for example extend to a camera grip. This changed the basic configuration of two-lens of main camera, but offers increased battery nominal charge, a sturdy handle and dedicated controls for the camera. The G5 has on the back two lenses: one for shooting at an angle of 78 degrees and a 16-megapixel sensor and a second with 8 megapixels and a shooting angle of 135 degrees.
