Re: EM10ii video quality?

I had EM5 and LX100, and wasn't happy either: EM5 has good stabilisation but less good video quality, LX100 has great 4K but it requires stabilization.

So I got EM10 mark II mainly for handheld video. Stabilisation is as good as (the original) EM5 has. I think 1080p50 video is decent. But I got spoiled with 4K video.

I just purchased G7 because LX100 is too tiny for my video monopod (no room to operate the lens, especially if ND filter is attached). The plastic body of G7 is a bit a turn off, but it seems to take great video and stills, and the size of the camera is great.

I lusted for the new Sony a6300 but I have so many m43 lenses so I decided to stay in the system. I also considered Samsung NX1 since it has great 4K video and stills capabilities, but the recent rumors make it less future-proof solution. If I had more Panasonic OIS lenses, I had purchased GX8.
