Hi everyone,

I bought my Panasonic GH4 a little more than 2 years ago and I have got two lenses: 12-35 f2.8 and 35-100 f2.8.
Nowadays I was wondering if it would be possible to substitute the GH4 with another lighter MFT camera.

I would mainly use it for photos, but for videos as well and its characteristics should be at least equivalent to those of a GH4.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

GH will be your only option...

If no very casual video shooting and small body, GX85 might be. It is a small swiss army knife support a lot of things, small and cost small but might not be best on anything.

For relatively more serious video work, G85 would be (mic in port). It is a scale down model of GH5.

If you pay more attention on still shooting, obvious the G9 would be the best choice especially for high speed shooting. But it is similar to GH5 in size and weight.
