The design of new art mediums in Web3 is as much a social coordination as it is a technological cooperation. Designers, engineers, and visionaries are now able to collaborate to create mixed reality art, working in augmented mixed reality frameworks so as to define and refine the architecture of the metaverse.

The Panasonic Lumix System revolutionized independent filmmaking through the convergence of a handheld DSLR style body, larger than video camera sensors for a narrow depth of field, and the versatility and utility of interchangeable lenses. By being mirrorless and with the use of adapters, a broad gamut of vintage and modern lenses became available for filmmakers to compose and refine the look and feel of their footage, ushering in a new era of budget cinematography.

How is AV helping bridge the gap between the real world and the metaverse? Some of the best examples can be seen in the midst of large-scale trade shows and industry events.

Over the years, Panasonic created and shaped a novel approach and subsequent community of run-and-gun handheld vloggers, videographers, and filmmakers with its hybrid cameras. What was conceptually defined with the GH1 was dramatically refined by the positive feedback loop (and firmware hacking) generated by the enthusiasts and professionals that used Panasonic's camera gear.

Panasonic, an international brand renowned for their innovation and planning technology roadmaps 200 years into the future, recently shook the blogging, videography, and independent film worlds with the announcement of the Lumix S5II and S5IIX. Pioneers in the field of adapting and engineering new video applications and markets by employing large sensors in hand-held form factors, the Japanese giant is poised to regain its title crown by healing its one achilles heal: autofocus.
