Panasonic GX80/85

Hey guys, anyone with experience with this camera? And if yes what are your thoughts?
I'm looking for a compact 2nd camera, I have a K1 and​ K50, but I'm looking for something smaller, and preferably not too expensive.

Check out the M4/3 thread. There are a number of examples in there.

I have the GX85. I bought it to have a smaller camera to throw in my briefcase for business trips. I'm impressed with the image quality and the general feel of the camera. I'm not that fond of the viewfinder, and I should also note that the viewfinder and the monitor (for live view) are not color-matched (the viewfinder has brighter and more saturated colors than either the monitor or the captured photos). It have not tried shooting video or the 4K photo features. I am happy enough with it that I have starting shopping for more lenses for it. Also, I dropped it onto a cement sidewalk earlier today (thought my wrist strap was on, but it wasn't) and the camera is working flawlessly, so I guess that says something about the build quality.
