Have the RX100v and it's brilliant but really not matching the situation outlined.  In hot conditions really not the story for narrative (ha) with the battery life and overheating (can only shoot 5min then has to cool for 20-30 minutes - and that's in cool weather) and extending lens to trap moisture and sand. Panasonic G85 is weather sealed. Still fairly small and light. IBIS! No problems with over heating. Get the 25mm 1.7 at least and you're good to go.  

I am an animator and image compositor looking for a point and shoot video camera to reside in my backpack.  I currently run a Pana Gx-7, which I like, but want something that shoots 4k and is possibly a little bit smaller.  I live in central Idaho mountains, I spend a lot of time outdoors doing non-photographic stuff, but I want to have a camera that I can pack easily.  Gets good stable video without a ton of external rigging, shoots 4k so I can crop later.  Basically looking for as much cinema as possible in a jacket-pocket sized camera.  Right now looking at the Panasonic LX-100 and the Sony RX-100 iv.  Anything else I should be looking at?  Anyone have experience shooting video on either of those?  Should I just get a new iPhone?

Thanks Amigos.  I'm going to try some of these tricks around town this week and see what I come up with.  I'd love to put the Canon out of mind.
