You make an interesting and useful point about looking at different parts of the picture. That is important to do but it also makes comparisons very difficult.

I am sorry, Tax, but your lecture is way off base. I have spent my life carefully analyzing decisions of myself and of others. I am here for fun . I owe you no explanation. Your analysis is baseless, silly and inappropriate on a photography forum. I won't respond again. Your fun is simply corrosive.

Well, remember, I am not obsessed with such things. I do like the hand held pixel shift but I have not and will not test it against normal mode or tripod ps. At some point I may notice something which tips me one way or another but I avoid constant judgments about things which are, for me, tools for pleasure. If I used them for some scientific research I would want to be sure which gave the better results. For my purposes both are subjectively excellent.

No, I do not like one more than the other subjectively. It may be like with children. I love them both about equally but each brings out different responses. i do think the II focuses a bit faster and more decisively but that may well just be confirmation bias.

I have a regular K-1ii and had planned to upgrade my Silver Ltd Ed also but I think I will wait awhile or maybe not do it at all. It might be nicer to have the Special Edition remain stock. I do not do a lot of testing but I really like the results with both cameras. I do tend to baby the silver one.

Yes, that damned review from the place not to be named has completely skewed the discussion. The two features I mentioned are what impressed me most. Note I did not mention the accelerator in the post reh321 quoted.

Remember that the Mark II also has the hand held PS which can be interesting and useful sometimes. It also seems a bit better at focus in continuous mode. I recognize that both of these positives for the Mark II tend to be based on subjective judgments. I have decided not to convert my silver K-1 to keep it as issued. If I find the time I will try to do controlled tests comparing the two. Trouble is I am busy and lazy so It may not come about :)
