Originally posted by Leumas Well if we are just going off that, my 8MP 15yr old Olympus looks just fine online too...not really a valid point. I'd say sure probably won't notice it.

You didn't read my full statement apparently. You do not notice any issues with the K-1 II when you are shooting it and processing the files. Except that there is less noise above iso 800. If you shot a K-1 and K-1 II image side by side on a tripod at above iso 800 and looked at the images at 100 percent, you might be able to see a difference in detail. Only the K-1 images would have more noise in them and once you take care of that, there would be no difference.
I am totally fine if people don't like the accelerator on principle, but they really magnify it into something it isn't.

This is the sort of performance I am seeing with the K-1 II at iso 6400:
and a pretty heavy crop:
Not wonderful photos, but I hope it demonstrates that the K-1 II does not just mash detail above iso 800, which is what is implied by some folks.
