All very good points Fred. My only comment would be that even a doubling of pixels would not be close to a doubling of resolution. Somebody else can do the exact math. The pixel density of my A6000 is higher than the 42 MP full frame sensor and most of my lenses don\'t struggle with the A6000, so I\'m not worried in the least about the RX1 lenses performance on the RX1ii. This is certainly one of the first things Sony\'s engineers would have checked.

Megapixels for the sensor: 24 MP = x*y = 6000*4000
Theoretical 50 % increase in resolution 1.5x*1.5y= 24*1.5^2= 54 MP
(24*2^2 = 96 MP to double the resolution)
The theoretical resolution increase given with 42 MP compared to a 24 MP sensor should be 7952/6000 = 1.33, >>> 33 % increase in resolution with 42 MP compared to 24 MP.
