I have a G7. For about $800 I could get the Pana 7-14mm f/4, and old but good lens that would give me a wide angle range I don't have now. Or, for $900 I could update to a G85 - which was reviewed here as "the camera the G7 should have been" - much less shutter shock (although, I only have a few examples of shutter shock), in camera focus stacking (the G7 doens't have that), weather sealed.

I shoot raw with the G7 and probably would still shoot raw with a G85. I like the G7 just fine. ... I am conflicted. Opinions please?

Agreed. I might add I bought mine more than a year ago for 700$ Cdn so 800$ US for a used copy now seems a bit high. Patience...
