The G80 (also known as the G85) may be the camera to look for. It's a G7-style body and comes with both mic input (unlike the GX80) and stabilisation with 4K video (unlike the GX8).

Though it might be worth waiting a week or so to see if Panasonic announce an updated version of the G80/G85 with a 20MB sensor. I think this is quite likely as it's about due (the GX85 was updated to the GX9 a few months ago, even if Panasonic named it as an update to the GX8), and it would also be a good opportunity for Panasonic to show continued commitment to the MFT system with all the buzz about their new full-frame system going around at the moment.

Nonetheless, the current G80/G85 is an excellent camera.
