I understand there is no problem with the camera, and that a larger sensor is able to render a better amount of detail.

The discussion here is relating to the way these small sensors render detail, and compare like for like sensor size. Some do it better, or with a more pleasing look than others.

The upshot is, for landscapes the 1/2.3 BSI-CMOS sensor is not ideal. I did a quick run-around yesterday to illustrate the situation with my SH-50 -

The horizon at 100% viewing shows over-sharpening, but the trees are mush -

If I were specifically interested in landscapes, I would look at larger sensors, possibly a different brand as well.

My SH-50 does the jobs I bought it for - and for Gannets In Flight and the moon, the red dot sight in the SP-100EE would make life a lot easier. But neither is good for serious landscape stuff.
