Re: GX9 vs G9

I have recently used or am still using: EP5, G85, G9, GX9 and most recently EM5iii. To me the GX9 is a disappointment- slippery w/out a grip, and the IBIS is poor. The EM5 is much better to use but with  some operational niggles e.g. multiple button  presses to use magnify with mf legacy lenses, among others. Admittedly the heft and sense of vulnerability sets them apart favouring the GX9 (but only if I can keep a hold on the thing!). The varied methods of articulation of the screen are good or bad depending of the particular situation.  So my two cameras  (heavy & light, main & backup) are G9 & EM5iii going forward.
