Panasonic DMW-BLK22 - battery performance

According to consumer reviews and specialists who tested the S5 the battery performance is on average level, definitely not among the leaders in class like the battery of the Sony Alpha 7 third gen.  

The DMW-BLK22 battery is rated for some 400 shots without using any of the power-saving modes. Having optimized for battery-saving the camera can reach up to over 1000 images on a single charge. 

Well, these are some pretty good numbers and we can conclude that this relatively compact and lightweight battery delivers good performance.
