Re: The 4K video has a catch

I don’t have the camera, and I can tell you why. And it’s one way it significantly differs from the G9:

The interest I would have in such a camera would be to dabble in video with a little more enthusiasm. But the G90 has a heavy crop when shooting 4K video. That is restrictive because the picture quality suffers, since frames come from a fraction of the frame area (so more noise, less dynamic range, and less detail), but also because it changes the angle of view of my lenses, breaking my already marginal wide-angle options.

You need to go to a G9 or GH5 to get rid of the 4K crop.

I don't pay any attention to video specs since I don't use my cameras for making video.  People who do care though should carefully evaluate video capabilities.  For you I think you are right that the G9 or GH5 is a better choice.
