-IQ? Not much to say here, really. I was surprised when I got the G9 and compared it to the G80, the difference was very small. Ever so slightly more detail, and slightly better dynamic range mostly in highlight (which is welcome). Noise is about the same. Really, I wouldn't advise anyone to upgrade for that reason alone, you would be disappointed.

On the GX9 ISO 100 is perfectly usable whereas on the GX80 I had to be very careful with highlights. I'd recommend giving it a go as I find there is much less noise doing this.
