Thanks all for all the replies. I took the plunge and ordered a G9 last night. Looking at various other options, the Z6, D500, D780, and even a Canon RP and Sony A7 III, I kept coming back to the G9. I think it will end up being a great addition to my Nikon kit, and help me love M43 even more.

Cheers

it may not be the most sexy body, but it is a lovable, tactile delight. UI could not possibly be better. The EVF puts it over-the-top, and even in IBIS and CAF, it virtually matches the EM1ii. Superb menu & touch screen. Customizable to the max.

Pure LOVE; intangibles elevate it above the APSC crowd. The Fuji XT4 maybe more beautiful, but all those analog dials are actually not the best for ergo and quickness

The video (I guess) is state of the art, and the CAF using 4K is much better than reported

Needless to say, I expect you'll be happy!

I got the camera for video, and coming from Sony, I didn’t want to give up AF too much. I would say that the G9 is 80% there, and a total pleasure to use.  The video features were a little beyond my expectations, although I did have to pay for the VLOG upgrade.

hoping for a GH6 with 4K120, May be a pipe dream, but I can easily wine with the G9 limitation for a while
