The FS-5 is designed to be used with many popular HDV and DV cameras. However, it features a 50% weight reduction and a 60% reduction in size compared to the FS-4. It also features a new low-power and fan-less design providing a 3 hour record time, using one removable Li-Ion battery pack.

Other major changes include a newly designed user interface and a 320 x 240 color LCD, but like the previous models you can not play back video.

Focus also replaced the computer firewire port with a USB 2.0 port allowing the use of a network dongle (WiFi or Wired) to allow laptop users to gain access to the device via wireless connection.

The 100GB FS-5 has a MSRP of $2,195 and is expected to ship summer 2008.

If you are at NAB come to Booth SL2605 to see the FS-5 in person.
