Had the GX7 after the G5, then got a GX85. Returned the GX85 for the G85 - absolutely prefer the G85 EVF (much larger image, much higher eyepoint for this eyeglass wearer), and love the larger grip. The grip size is GX85 < GX7 <<< G85. Also, althpough for 3 years I loved the GX7 rangefinder style, at the end of the day the centered 'SLR' style of the G5 and G85 just feels so much easier to me. The dual IBIS of the G85, larger battery and numerous control dials also makes for an easier shooting experience. Having said that, the removal of the anti-aliasing filter from the GX85 and G85 sensors makes for a great increase in feather and fur detail. Now looking to sell the GX7 as I don't plan on it for a second body.

Let's discuss!
