Those that want the compact shape and size of the GX9 RF-style body might have to continue to suffer compact field sequential evf units to get it.

Is there some reason an EVF similar to the PEN-F cannot be used in one?

Don’t know the Pen F never made it past the side hinged evf.

Some don’t mind the GX7/GX85/GX9 evf, some prefer the GX8 evf. Some don’t need an external EV dial - others quite like it.

I wasn't asking about the PEN-F. I was asking about the PEN-F EVF since you and others keep complaining about the GX7, GX7II, and GX7III EVF. It isn't like the GX7/PEN-F body shape requires the same old GX7 EVF. The PEN-F shows that.

I think it had more to do with cutting cost and/or excess stock of those EVF's. The original GX7 had it, so I'm guessing Panasonic was just sitting on stock.
