Hopefully the GX10 will inherit the G100 EVF. Shutter and IBIS seems OK on the GX9. I would most likely have bought the GX9 had it had those 2 features. Not giving up my G9 now though

I thought the IBIS on the GX9 (and GX80) was pretty weak, I found it added nothing whatsoever to the OIS of the 12-60 or 14-42-II in "DUAL IS" mode and although better than none at all with small unstabilized primes, its lightyears behind G9 or EM1-II IBIS , I actually found the 4 axis one in the GX8 more effective . this could be down to the far better grip of the GX8 though ........... this is for stills of course, it maybe more effective for video , the last Pan M43 cam I shot video with was back in the Hacked GH1 days.

Unfortunately, the GX8 disables IBIS while shooting 4K video. I found the GX85 did pretty good Video stabilization in 4k

as I say, no idea, Video is irrelevant to me in Mirrorless cams apart from providing the 4K and 6K photo modes handy for press stuff
