Re: 2nd G85 or G95

Until earlier this year while G95 was still relatively expensive, I edged towards G85. But now the table turned.

If budget is not a problem, I shall opt for the G95 because its price is falling fast (at least true to my region, nowaday G95 should be just around <US$100 more than I paid for my G85 last year:US$430 body only).

The improvement on G95 worth for that small premium. 4Mp more pixel count, improved jpg engine, the first ever Live Composite of Panny, a customizable My Menu, likely also min shutter speed, customised file name, direct USB powering etc...

If you do not own the 14-150 yet, I might recommend you the better IQ Panny 14-140 f/3.5~5.6 mk-II, it is also WR as Oly 14-150, DUAL IS 2 compatible on both G85 and G95, DFD for faster AF etc...
