The Gx9 is a very nice step up from the Gx7. Better IQ, better jpegs colours, many more functions, better video, better ibis*, same Evf... I own one, and I also had the gx7 and Gx80 prior to that. The Gx9 is obviously the most refined of the three. However, camera operation has gotten slower compared to prior 16 megapixel cameras. Touch interface is laggy which can be annoying. But then again, its bigger siblings, the G9, has exactly the same issue... Sigh.

A friend of mine recently bought the em5.3 so we quickly compared them side by side. The Olympus has a nicer Evf, better grip and much better ibis ( but then again my Gx9 ibis seems faulty as it works intermittently, but I still haven't figured whether only mine is faulty or if it's a general issue as several have reported the issue...)

I'm wondering whether your GX9 has issues in general...

I don't have the GX7, but have both the GX85 and GX9. My GX9 is much snappier than my GX85, so I'm surprised that you find it slower or more laggy...
