Dpreview interviewed Fuji and this is what they think about Sony:
Toru Takahashi: “Sony has a big advantage, they make their own sensors. That is a very big advantage for them, but they are weak in lenses.” Toshihisa Iida: “And they are weakened by having so many formats. APS-C, full-frame, [across both] DSLR and mirrorless. So their lens division must be under a lot of pressure!”
And after the interview Barnaby Britton from dpreview added an editor’s note: “representatives from more than one manufacturer have suggested to me privately that they doubt whether Sony is serious about sub full-frame formats in the long term”
Our Canadian colleges from TCSTV tested the new RX1rII. They compared it with the Leica Q:
The [shoplink 44171]Leica Q[/shoplink] has a better manual focus ring and better overall handling, larger battery, higher resolution EVF.
The [shoplink 44135]RX1rII[/shoplink] is smaller and the RAW image quality is way better (better sharpness, high ISO, Dynamic range)
Overall conclusion: Chris says he likes the Leica Q better “as a camera” but the Sony is the best bang for the buck. It is the better purchase between the two.
Owners of the RX1RII with the serial number between “6310198” and “6311127” will gte a free repair to fix the light leak issue. This is the official info via Sony Support:

TheSpaniard: “While this isn’t strictly Sony, it is a story from our favourite lens manufacturer for our Somy cameras, Carl Zeiss. They’ve made a Smart glasses, ala Google Glass. http://www.wired.com/2016/01/zeiss-smart-glasses/”
Roderick: “Hi there, here is something I shot during my holiday last year in Costa da Caparica(Portugal) in between surfing, using A7s and mainly Noct Nikkor 58mm F/1.2 and 24mm AF-S F/1.4, and a 100mm AIS Nikkor E with a 2x extender for the kite surf shots. It was shot pretty much run and gun, but the surf shots were done using a monopod for stability. Mainly 1080p24 and 720p120 for the surf shots. https://vimeo.com/137879865“
