Would 10 bits with e-shutter on GX80/85 mean worse IQ than 12 bits on GX7? The majority of shooting would be with electronic shutter so that is important to me.

Is it a big difference between dual IS and 5 axis on GX80 vs the IS in GX7? I won't use long lenses, I will use a 17mm or 20mm prime.

If you are not intending to use long lenses, I suggest the difference in IS is irrelevant. I have both cameras: intended to sell the GX7 but find the toggle switch between af and mf too valuable to lose. I can't say the 10 bit vs 12 bit difference has ever made the slightest impact.
