Question re pixel shift, since it has to be combined in software (Sony software?), how much of an improvement is this over shooting longer focal lengths and stitching?
Pixel shift is still limited by the lens, whereas stitching a longer focal length offers potentially much higher (depending on the focal length and the number of shots).
However pixel shift does have some advantages. It is superior when you are focal length limited or magnification limited. It doesn't require a panoramic tripod head, it will never suffer from parallax errors, it requires less manual intervention, and the software processing is easier (no stitching, perspective adjustment or even demosaicing required).
