Older Lumix cameras sold in Japan (GH4, G7, GX8 etc) have Japanese only menus, while newer camera models (GX7MK2, GX7MK3, G8, GH5, G9) have Japanese/English/Chinese/Korean menus available. So there's no need to go to a shop geared for international sales if you want a newer model.

According to the Panasonic spec pages, the one exception for newer cameras is the GH5S which has only Japanese menus, unlike the GH5 which is multi-lingual.

As you'll see from this Japanese price comparison site, used GX7MK2 cameras don't sell at much of a discount compared to new .
