Go with the G80. It's everything you will need with the notable exception of the lack of a remote control input socket.

There is one remote port on my G85. I suppose G80 should be the same?

I bought one as a back-up and it very quickly became my main unit for pretty much everything I do. Coupled with a Nissin i40 / i60 flash it is just brilliant with flash sync to 1/4,000th (yes, that's four thousandth).

On my G85, the flash synchronisation shutter speed is limited to 1/160". Although I had experimented on GX7/GX85 etc that could shoot at 1/1000" around (IIRC) using a manual frash without real flash synchronisation issue (no branding), have not tested it yet on my newly purchased G85.

Did that 1/4000" syn speed was in HSS mode? I think any HSS support flash can do that.
