Most of the images of the R5 that I have seen are soft, nothing close to the a9. That remains to be explained.



That must have been because it were OOC jpegs?
The R5 RAW files that I've converted to be edited in LR are very sharp and a lot more detailed than the A9/A9II.
Just like you'd expect from such a resolution difference.


I haven't reviewed any shots out of the R5, but I compared my A7R3 shots against my spouse's A9 shots. I often did not find much if any difference between them, despite that the A9 is 24MP and the A7R3 is 42MP. Since I wanted better AF, I got an A9 and sold the A7R3. One would expect the A7R3 to have much more detailed images, but I just did not see it at 100% side-by-side comparisons.


Those are exactly the same cameras I'm using right now (A9 + A7RIII) and while I'm certainly happy with the A9 files I do see more fine detail in my A7RIII shots.

You can also see this in something like the DPR comparison tool:


update:
since they've now also added the R5, here's also that comparison:


So just like I mentioned earlier: I think it's very normal that the 45MP R5 gives better detail than a 24MP A9.
