Pre-order the new Sony RX1R II today!
The new Sony RX1R II can be pre-ordered today from B&H Photo and Adorama.

First pre-orders will start shipping November 25th

B&H Photo | Adorama

________________

The RX1R II brings a 42.4 Megapixel BSI-CMOS sensor borrowed from the a7R II, 35mm F2 Zeiss Sonnar T lens, retractable viewfinder, variable low-pass filter and greatly improved autofocus. The first variable optical low-pass filter system that can adjust voltage on a liquid crystal layer to adjust the light-splitting properties of the array. This feature allows users to prioritize detail, eliminate moire and aliasing, or strike a balance between the two.

The RX1R II borrows the same Hybrid AF system as the A7R II with 399 phase-detect AF points with 45% coverage along with 25 CDAF points. Sony claims a 30% improvement over the RX1R's autofocus speed. AF tracking has been improved with up to 5 fps continuous shooting. Eye-AF and lock-on AF are also included. As on the original RX1 models, a macro switch ring offers quick access to a close focusing mode that can be used with subjects as close as 14cm. Like the A7RII and A7SII, the RX1R II will also offer uncompressed 14-bit Raw capture.

Main features:
  1. 42MP Full-Frame Exmor R BSI CMOS Sensor
  2. BIONZ X Image Processor
  3. Variable Optical Low-Pass Filter
  4. Zeiss Sonnar T* 35mm f/2 Lens
  5. Full HD 1080p60 Video & XAVC S Format
  6. 399 Phase-Detect AF Points & 5 fps Burst
  7. 0.39" 2.36M-Dot XGA OLED Tru-Finder EVF
  8. 3.0" 1,228.8k-Dot Tilting LCD Monitor
  9. ISO 102400 & Uncompressed 14-Bit RAW
  10. Built-In Wi-Fi Connectivity with NFC

I should never had rented a RX1R!
I really enjoyed shooting with it and the 35mm lens is truly unique. The Mark II seems to have fixed all the shortcomings I had with the camera. I'm getting it as part of my kit:

Heliar 10/4.5 (when available)
FE 16-35/4
Loxia 21/2.8 (pre-ordered)
RX1RII 35/2 (pre-ordering in 15 minutes )
FE 55/1.8
Canon EF 135/2L

Canon TS-E 17/4L

I may also get the Batis 85/1.8. Not sure because the Canon 135/2 fulfill my short telephoto needs.

I think Guy is right. I noticed that Lens Rentals has this listed as available to rent (deliver to you) by Nov 9th so they are probably getting their shipment overnight to check before being sent out. So this is another way to get one if you're not ready to buy yet.

I splurged for a 35mm VC so I'm watching from the sidelines for the moment.

Lens Rental has a tie in with Sony for their pro services, so it makes sense they will have lenses before the general public.

I think you can buy the rental also (probably with stipulations, being so new).

Still getting lots of use and love of my RX1, so I am not looking to upgrade to this new version yet. Need to save up for next years Orus 28/1.4 release. This new RX1R2 should be great! Enjoy Fred!

Did you get rid of the rest of your canon gear? If you did, I'm surprised you didn't hold onto the 24TSE.

Having shot with the original Rx1 for over 3 years, that flippy screenie is a big deal for me. A great improvement Sony.
