Upgrading from D90 to M43s / 760D

Hi – long time lurker first time poster please be nice J

I have had my Nikon D90 since 2008 together with a Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 HSM.  That gave me razor sharp images with wonderful colours but I need something lighter and smaller with wifi/BT, 4k/1080p w/ AF and IQ with saturated colours and sharpness.

Panasonic G7 is the #1 contender despite the iffy AF in video. Sony A6000 would be #2 where I am trading better AF for lesser image quality (as I read). Canon 760D is my #3 and I am not prepared to go for anything bigger/heavier than that.  Video = no Nikons.

My questions:

- For folks we have gone from DSLRs to M4/3s, are you happy with the IQ especially colour saturation and sharpness? Pixel-peeping online pix taken with G7 and A6k left me disappointed over their sharpness and colors. My current set-up didn't require me to do any post production so I don't.

- If trading better pix for video with the above constraints, is Canon 760D/T6s the next best thing and a big step-up from D90?  does hybrid AF perform as well as DP on 70D/80Ds in your experience? I know 760D can only do 1080p30 but that is not too much of a concern if it can nail the focus.

Thank you
