I bought a used Panasonic G85 +12-60 3.5-5.6 last week to test out the M43 ecosystem, as I'm looking for a lighter set up. I also have a Sony 6500, a Nikon j5 for street, and a NikonD7500 70-200 2.8 for kids sports.

I really like the way the G85 handles. It just feels great in my hands. I also like the menu layout. I was taking pictures today of my kid's soccer game and I was surprised by the excellent job the G85 did. Focus was spot on. No dud's.  I couldn't believe it.

Time will tell whether IQ and low light performance fills my needs. If not, then I may look at the Fuji system. Nevertheless, I think Panasonic makes a hell of a camera, and the G85 is a great example.
