Great, but not very reliable

GX7 is a classic. Bought mine new right after launch in 2013. Still have it, but rarely use it.

The down button on the rear pad failed, so it only goes up. Other than that, it’s been rock solid.

Still hate the EVF.

Why not check out a used GX8? It’s a MUCH better camera on every level. Image quality, feature set and handling. The EVF is fantastic compared to the GX7’s meager peep-hole.
