In another thread someone lamented that there was no smaller version of the G9. The G95/G90/G91 is smaller/lighter and doesn't seem to give up too much. I see that at Amazon the G9 is $997.99 and the G95 + 12-60mm f3.5-5.6 is also $997.99.

It gives up lots tbh.

AF system, high spec video, battery life, thumb stick/fn buttons/lever, the viewfinder size, battery grip (ok you can use the g85 grip but the buttons are not the same, build quality and sealing, dual slots, theres more, that just off the top of my head.

Whether any of that is important to you is personal of course.

Having the G9 and having used the G90, I would be sad if I had to swap.

I think the G90 will come into its own when its price is a little further from the G9. As it stands, size and perhaps the flash are the only up sides, oh and unlimited video recording.

I can understand why people have gone for the G90, size is an important factor.

I was looking for something that fit in my hand like a 6D but had all the modern features and lens selection I needed. MFT and the G9 has been perfect so far, and yes I bought a flash and trigger, I wont be going back to on camera very often now.
