How is your current camera failing you?

Good reminder. I am very happy user but I suppose you are always wanting more.

There are three things that can be better in G9;

1. The best thing for me in GX8 is EVF. Using that you can easily see where the camera is focusing even with glasses. The EVF in G9 is supposed to be even better. But no tilting which is a minus.
2. G9 stabilizer is better. Good in low light.
3. G9 ergonomics is little better. But that comes with bigger size and weight.
