I have been thinking of up grading my G5 for a GX9. I briefly had a GX85 and just could not get a sharp clear image in the VF no matter what I did plus I am left eye dominant which made the problem even worse. A long time ago I had a GX7 and did not find this issue plus I remember the diopter being smooth with no clicks and the fact that it tilted made left eye viewing just fine. My question is does the GX9 have the same diopter as the GX85 and if so is it better. I really think the fact that the EVF tilts and there is a hood for it would make it the perfect camera.

I have zero experience with the GX85 so can't say if the diopter on the GX9 is the same or not.  I can say that the diopter on the GX9 has click stops and is rotary, unlike the GX7.  Also, I find the GX7's EVF to be sharper than the GX9's.  It hasn't stopped me from enjoying the GX9, though.
