Re: Which would you prefer: GX7 or GX85?

I had the GX7, and now I'm using the GX85. I must say that I preferred the GX7 body: tilting EVF, magnesium body (vs plastic), sharper screen, better grip (my hand feels sore after a short while using the GX85).

Other than that, the GX85 is the better camera for me. Sharper images, less shutter shock (though not completely solved IMO), 4K video, quiet shutter, faster autofocus, in body IS for video and stills and extremely fast operation (this thing is FAST!).

Just a shot from yesterday.
