What do you think?

I mentioned this before(see my earlier post) and I'll mention again - a GM1 + either a 12-32 or a 14mmf2.5 will provide you a good m43 system with fairly recent and very decent technology.  A system you can grow with.  GF5 is one generation older sensor-wise.

I won't even consider the LX7 if given a GM1 as an option.  Like any other system, you will find some annoyances which you'll adapt to like we all do.

My vote is still on GM1.  Lens-wise, since I shoot primarily with prime's, a 14mmf2.5 or 17mmf2.8 or both will be a good starter.  I have all 3 so I can vouch for them
