The software "Zoombrowser EX4.1" that comes with the Canon G5 provides this functionality it is called "Remote Capture" and allows viewing of the live output of the camera on your computer screen as well as full control of focus/zoom options and time lapse shooting.

You have the option to record to the computers hard disk or the camera memory card.

This link will take you to worldwide sites with further info on the camera
