I own a Panasonic GX7 with Panasonic 14-42mm.

I want to buy a Panasonic LUMIX G X VARIO 14-140mm F3.5-5.6 ASPH, but I think it's rather expensive (€ 599). I can buy a brandnew G6 with this zoomlens for only € 50 more (€ 649).

Is the IQ (JPEG) of the G6 on par with the GX7 ? And the video quality?

Buy the G6 kit.

Sell the G6 with the 14-42mm.

Keep the GX7 and the 14-140mm II.

If possible, pick up a prime like the 20mm or 25mm f1.4/f1.7 for low light.

Perfect advice. The 14-140II is one of the best zooms I've ever used.

I agree you can't do much better than follow jeff and saudidave's advice.  GX7 and 14-140 go together like strawberries and cream
