Panasonic will be officially live streaming the LUMIX S5IIX Thursday May 11 at 2:00 PM. You should be able to watch the Live broadcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbv7diFkMBg

Interesting how Panasonic is borrowing a page from Leica and downplaying its LUMIX logo and the S5IIX mark. A clever marketing ploy to give more cachet to the LUMIX brand.
