I got electronic curtain in my first sony 37 camera 10 years ago. Next 77 had it too. GX9 still has problem of mechanical shock, I tested it on a chart and created a theme here about it. I don't know what prevents Panasonic from make EFCS in new cameras, it will resolve problem totally.

Panasonic introduced EFCS in 2013 I think (GM1?). Why it is not used in GX80/85 or GX9 is a mystery. However, these cameras do have the electromagnetic shutter that should eliminate most of it. I am very sorry to say this, but GX9 in many aspects is not up to the recent technology. A LOT of people were disappointed when it was introduced, especially considering the price.
