Ricoh Best complimentary longer lens cam to go with GR?

Actually, the GR has become part of my travel kit, where it's complemented by the GX80 with 25mm and 14-150mm II lenses. But I have a secret package I really, really love - the E-PL7 (which I usually treat much like a :mu43: GR with the 17mm f/1.8 attached) paired with the Sigma 30mm f/2.8. Still reasonably compact, low profile, but a fantastic way to do street portraiture. The camera's I.B.I.S. and the lens's characteristics (it's very neutral and quite sharp) make for a very stable and versatile platform even if the lights are fading, and the setup is quick and very reliable. The "long normal" FoV differentiates itself quite clearly from the moderate wide angle even of the 17mm f/1.8, so it'll be even more noticeable compared to the GR.

Of course, one could also pair a A6000 with the Sigma 30mm f/2.8 ... you'd lose I.B.I.S. and the 60mm-e, but gain on the sensor and AF performance ...
