Juan,

I agonized over exactly your quandry.  In May, I went to Iceland with my granddaughter.  This was one of the main things on my bucket list and I wanted the best camera I could comfortably carry.  I was going to switch to Fujifilm and buy the XE-3.  I went to NYC to B&H to buy the Fuji.  I have been using m43 cameras since 2010 and have a collection of lenses.  I decided to try the G9 even though it is physically a larger camera than I wanted.  Once I looked  through the magnificent EVF and looked over the camera, I knew that it would be right for me.  It is the best camera I have ever owned, and I have been buying cameras since 1957.  It is incredibly well designed, every button is in the right place.  I have used it for landscape, street, and sports photography and it always exceeds my expectations.  I shoot in Raw + Jpeg and I must say these are the best Jpegs that Panasonic has ever made.  I am so glad that I did not purchase the Fujifilm, even though I know it is a very good camera.  I saved having to buy a new system of lenses.

Good luck, whatever you buy.

Hal
