It is interesting to me that we often are concerned that a lens will no longer be "sharp enough" as we go to higher-density sensors. What really happens is that the sharpness improvement gets less evident (assuming we are looking at the entire image from a similar distance - whether a screen or a print). On the other hand, other compromises in lens quality tend to be more easily recognized - such as CA, misfocusing, rendering (color transitions, bokeh, etc.) and the differences in overall quality between the center and edges. Yet, we still seem especially preoccupied with sharpness (speaking of photography gearheads as a general rule, current company notwithstanding).
It will be interesting how this all translates when we get a large sampling of K-1 FF images from particular lenses. While a great many lenses might transition very nicely, some resignation seems likely.
