Tiny bit more resolution on the Z7 II.

Maybe they don't consider pixel shift a practical application for most people because they won't bother with the extra steps necessary to massage the files.

Maybe they like the handling, or the menu or the lens selection, it's hard to know if they don't elaborate on it.

Only thing I could thing it's better at would be 4k 60fps recording, and possibly better a/f but neither metrics are essential for landscape.

At the price of the Z7 II thou you could get a fuji 50R when it's on sale for a little more, or get a 2nd hand one.

I looked at the studio comparison too. Unfortunately it doesn't offer a tangible expression for landscape because of it's controlled lighting, but I popped in the Sigma sdh, that thing has an unique crispness to it, the 5dsr looks good at base iso, but they get murdered once you increase ISO, and turn in pixel shift on the Pentax.

I'm still waiting for the K1 III, hopefully it will be a substantial upgrade, hopefully Pentax doesn't destroy itself by not being flexible enough.
