I tried out the GX9 at a local shop last month, then saw an amazing deal online last week and ordered it. (700€ with the 200mm prime lens included.) But delivery has been slow and they say I can cancel the order.

I assume you meant the 20/1.7? Any other kit lenses included in the deal?

In the US, a GX85 + 12-32 + 45-150 was going for $499 last week.

Since then I’ve researched more, and wonder if the PEN F is better for me. That’s when I submitted this post.

I see a PEN-F in your bag soon

My hesitations now, aside from logistical order details, are the 1080p video and the swivel screen 👎 Oh and now it’s twice the price...

Hmm, amazon UK PEN-F bundle deal comes with a 17/1.8. I didn't check your country of residency though...

Edit: I see you're in Germany. The PEN-F body-only is 1000€ plus change

Tell me your thoughts!
