I purchased the GX85 after holding an Olympus PEN (GX-9 wasn’t out yet) and have been very happy with it for a small travel camera -or for when I want to carry something light as opposed to the DSLR.

Love the video - although that’s not what I use mainly for. I’ve gotten some fun shots - and have been really impressed with the 30mm macro. I’ve been considering getting the GX-9 for the extra megapixel but have a hard time justifying the cost for the “want”.

I have similar conclusion that not much of GX9 to offer over GX85. Might watch GX10 that might have more new features, DUAL IS-2, advanced DFD, faster AF like G9, in camera USB Power support (not charging), and a 4:3 OLED evf 😆.

But I’ve also been considering the Panasonic 15mm for a prime.

15 is a fantastic lens, if you like the focal length.

enjoy your purchase - and I love your shots!
