Invest in glass, especially as it opens up new focal ranges.

Plus we don't know if the G9 was really the successor to the G85 or if they may bring out a G95 which might be light years ahead of the G85, like the GH5 and GH5S are. The G7 came out after the GH4 and has the same video quality which people were amazed with (G7 has better color imo and I believe lowlight is also improved) with just some pro things left out like external recording and jack/s. A follow up might get the wider crop, using the full sensor for video and HDR video or at least higher bitrate recording.

If you are more concerened with photos there is a noticeable difference between the G7 and G85 when you look closely, but I would still get the lens.
