Another thread from me with zero sense but it helps me make some decisions i am battling with. Lets say you have each of these cameras for identical price. Which one would you pick and why? Amateur, street, travel, mostly photos barely videos, don’t care fixed/interchangeable already have GX85 just want another camera thats all. Thank you all

If I have GX85 already, I shall rule out G7 since it is the last to still using the last generation of hardware of Panny. Fixed sensor vs 5-axis floating sensor, non DUAL IS support, noisy m-shutter...

I shall look for the G85, which should also be under heavy discount and have everything GX85 has, but improved ergonomic, great IBIS, DUAL IS 2, longer battery life, close to full range of EFCS uptown 1/2000", 12 bits e-shutter, Cibe-like profile for video, mic-in port, more control on AF sensitivity etc improvement from GX85. Also least importance to me, a 4:3 evf of larger magnification. Its OLED display is also sunglasses friendly.

If only for a small amount of money, I shall never look back on a much older model.

I paid smaller money for a new G85 last year than what I paid for a GX85 4 years ago...

LX100 is a fixed lens compact. Totally different Class of camera and it should offer nothing more, just less, than GX85.

No comment on Olympus.
