I just returned from an exhausting tour of Rajasthan in India. I took the Rx1R2 and the A7R2. Almost 65% of the images were taken with the little fella. I did take other lenses with me, but the majority of the A7R2 images were taken with either the 16-35 or the Batis 25. Did not use the Batis 85 at all and just took a handful of images with the 55 1.8
I found the RX1R2 to be really everything I thought it would be. Small, lightweight, not intimidating to people around, quick to focus, super sharp wide open and overall excellent image quality.
I used it for all kinds of images, people, street candids, buildings, vistas and general landscape stuff. Did not notice any 'field curvature' effect at f5.6 - f11.
I do have a couple of minor niggles. I prefer using the back-button focusing with all my cameras and there is no way to do this and it means there is also no way to turn off AF with the shutter release in auto-focus mode. Other issues such as low battery life etc I am not going into.
Perhaps the best travel camera ever. Amazing power in such a tiny package. Will post some images in the Fun With thread.
