95% of what I like to shoot is street and traveling/documentary photography (no sports). However I do tend to travel to pretty remote areas in Asia so weather sealing and durability are important.
What kind of shooting do you plan to do with it? Overall they're pretty similar but if you're shooting moving subjects I'd take the E-M1ii/E-M1X over the G9 any day. If you're not shooting moving subjects, the G9 is pretty hard to beat.

I use to have the EM1 Mkii and a few pro lenses. Currently I have the EOS R which I really like but there's something about the Olympus and the lenses I miss.
So I was thinking of either getting the E-M1X or possibly the G9. The thing I wanted to ask you, since you had the EM1 Mkii before, is do you find the G9 to be overall better?
I have to admit that when I was trying out the G9 and E-M1X at a local shop, I really never noticed how bad the EVF was on the Oly until I tried the G9 (also checked the S1 and that EVF was awesome). The one thing that I am not sure about on the G9 was pulsing due to DFD, especially in low light. Love to hear your thoughts
Thanks Robert!
