What I like the most about the GX7 is the ergonomics. It seems everything is at the right place for me. The grip is very comfortable and the two dials for controlling aperture and shutter speed are at the perfect spot on the camera. The AE/AF Lock button is just under the end of my thumb when I hold the camera. The buttons at the rear of the camera are small but not to cramped together. There are dedicated buttons for ISO, White balance, AF Selection and Drive mode and there are 4 physicals Functions buttons (+ 5 more virtual buttons on the right side of your screen. All those buttons and dials are customizable. There is a switch to change from auto to manual focus and I use it a lot, especially in video.

The screen is sharp, with good contrast and is easy to see even in full sunlight. It's not fully articulated like on the GH series but it's tiltable like the OM-D. The electronic viewfinder is better than the E-M5 but not as good as the Olympus VF4. The nice thing though is that viewfinder is also tiltable which makes it useful when shooting from a lower standpoint. I would like a bigger eyecup. It would make it more comfortable to shoot with glasses. There is also a tunnel effect when I look in it with my glasses so I have to be more careful when I frame my shots. The EVF is on the right side of the camera which is quite useful. If you are a right-eye shooter, your nose don't smear the screen. If you are a left-eye shooter, your nose don't get in the way of your right hand controlling the camera.
