Why not the GX85 with the 12-32 ?

The 12-32mm is sharper

It is much more compact

You lose some of the reach

You gain a lot on the wide angle, important for the type of photography you mention.

You gain a lot in image stabilization (Better IBIS, Dual-IS), very important for your photography

You gain stabilization in video, absolutely necessary for hand held

Plus many other stuff the GX85 has (smaller lighter body, better screen, better AF, USB charging, better shutter mechanism without shock, electronic shutter to 1/1600, 4K video, 4K photo mode)

The GX7 was a fine camera, but with what we have these days available, I woulnd't think it worth more than $200 to be honest.
