Looking to add a 4/3 camera to my collection. It will mainly be used for 4K video.

Leaning heavily towards a G85 but with the price of the G7, curious how much of a difference there is between the two? How do the low light 4k performances compare? Is the G85 significantly better than the G7 when on a tripod?

Thanks for the input.

The G7 has shutter-shock (I've observed it in mine); the G85 shutter is significantly improved, + it has IBIS.
