Just checked the price on WEX for a GX8 + 14-42 kit lens = £1149

That's £900 more than I just paid (if I include the £50 cash back) for a GX7 + 14-42

I doubt that spending £900 more would noticeably improve my photographs.

As a side note, I just tested the WiFi remote control facility - first camera I've had with such a feature - I'm well impressed, combined with the silent shutter this will be excellent for nature photography.

12 months or later you might buy GX8 at similar price (although no guarantee).
