GX85 has some upgrades from GX7, but some downgrades as well, and it never tempted me (I still own a GX7). GX9 is a true upgrade, though more expensive than the GX85. I haven't used it, and I haven't heard the concerns about IBIS.
I love the G9, a very capable camera, and the size works well for me. I find it big enough to enable a wonderfully ergonomic layout of controls.
Since you don't seem to be attached to the rangefinder body style, you might also consider the G85, which is feature-filled and reasonably priced. Uses the 16MP sensor, but aside from that there's not much not to like.
Thanks Brent. No, I'm not particularly attached to the range finder style but I would prefer it. At this point I'm ruling out 16MP cams because no 4K and I want at least some resolution improvement. I think the choices for me are GX9, EM1 II, possibly G9. I don't think I'd go GX85 as the GX9 is just better and not that much more.
G85 shoots 4K at up to 60FPS. Also has 4K photo modes, too. I shoot it in conjunction with my GX7.
I like having both RF style and SLR style cameras. If I were to upgrade my GX7 now, I'd look at the GX9 or the PEN-F. I'd probably go for the GX9 since I dislike the PEN-F's ergonomics.

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the company's latest classically-styled APS-C mirrorless camera. It gains the 40MP sensor and AF system from the X-H2 but in a body with a more stills-focused slant. We've been putting it through its paces.
We're Noct messing around with this review.
Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom impress in a lot of ways, but their noise reduction lags the competition and their lens corrections lack a real-world basis. DxO PureRAW 3 aims to come to their rescue without totally reinventing your workflow!
The Sony ZV-E1 is the company's latest vlogging-focused camera: a full-frame mirrorless camera based the FX3/a7S III sensor, aimed at YouTubers and 'creators' looking to go pro.
The Sony ZV-E1 is a full frame camera targeting YouTubers. Chris and Jordan are Youtubers, what do they think?
