I currently have a Panasonic G7 which has been a fantastic camera but I am thinking of upgrading to a G85, mainly for the unlimited video recording capability. I have two questions about the G85 - would appreciate any comments on these:

1) How good is the weather sealing on the G85? Is it OK in a light/med rain?

it worked in snow with a sealed lens today. it is also a more sturdy body

2) How good is the video autofocus? Not expecting miracles but curious what G85 users would say about effectiveness of autofocus during video.

Thanks!

the IBIS is what is more attractive for video, I am not sure if it is better in the AF
