I'd want to drill down further before drawing any conclusions about E-M1 vs G85 focus comparisons. E-M1--either version--is blazing fast and accurate with native m4/3 lenses. G85 may, and likely is a bit better with Panny lenses due to DfD. I'd be surprised, shocked even if it proved better with the Pro lenses. I shoot action with the Pro teles on both E-M1s and it's generally dead on, with very high keeper rates.
I disagree. DFD bodies were far better focusing in a number of situations, even with many Olympus lenses, than the E-M1. I can't say for certain that in certain isolated situations with certain Olympus lenses that the E-M1 wouldn't win out, but the E-M1 wasn't in the game for most uses.
My go-to resource is Brian Wadie, who shoots a very difficult sport, often in crappy light with the G9/E-M1ii/100-400 trio. He leans to the G9 most recently. I have yet to encounter a comparison showing better response from Pro teles on a G85 or G9 vs. an M1ii. The E-M1 is could be a closer contest.
Cheers,
Rick
The best comparison I have seen for the G9 vs E-M1.2, but unfortunately just before the recent firmware upgrade.

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the company's latest classically-styled APS-C mirrorless camera. It gains the 40MP sensor and AF system from the X-H2 but in a body with a more stills-focused slant. We've been putting it through its paces.
We're Noct messing around with this review.
Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom impress in a lot of ways, but their noise reduction lags the competition and their lens corrections lack a real-world basis. DxO PureRAW 3 aims to come to their rescue without totally reinventing your workflow!
The Sony ZV-E1 is the company's latest vlogging-focused camera: a full-frame mirrorless camera based the FX3/a7S III sensor, aimed at YouTubers and 'creators' looking to go pro.
