The 12-35 f2.8 is not what I would call a kit lens.

Right. And the price of that kit (if I wanted the GX8) was the same as a new GH5! Hence my point...

I bought my GX8 in bundle with 12-60 f3.5-5.6 from a French famous  brick and mortar shop  for only 620 € last october. Which was really a bargain.

I do enjoy both the camera and the lens.

The 20MP sensor and the jpeg engine in GX8 are, IMO, much improved over the older 16MP sensor and JPEG engine in my G7 and GM5.

And the GX8 ergonomy and viewfinder are a joy to use.
