I need a small carry-anywhere MFT body, mainly for stills and occasionally as a second body for 1080p video (I already have a G80 as my main video camera). I'll mainly be using it fully manual, occasionally aperture priority. Essentials are good manual handling and a tilting screen.

A 'nearly new' used GX7 looks like the best option, is there any reason I shouldn't get it? Anything I need to look out for?

Bought it last year ago, almost like new ($150). For the tilting EVF, not for the type of screen tilt, and for the IS. Found no fault, very pleasant to use, clearly better than my G3. The main small camera in strong light, when NX 20 and 30 are too large.
