a7 ii, AA filter?

[schmopinions]

I haven't seen that mentioned anywhere so I assume that the a7 ii will be WITH an anti-aliasing filter (I guess that's still assumed as the default).  Can anyone confirm that?

I guess the general AA-filter discussions are an bit over estimated! Who makes wall size prints? Most people watching their images on regular PC monitors only!

Can't confirm it but I suspect your assumption is correct.  It is a pity though.

Boy, seems like so many have lost the art of "printing" images for display in their home or in a gallery. Really too bad.  Even for prints that are the size of a 24 or 27" monitor benefit from the finer resolution at 300 dpi instead of 72 ppi.

Eh, I like sort of a "critical sharpness" in my motives, and I'd rather like to achieve this without running a sharpness filter on the images, especially when the starting resolution has been impacted by cropping.

 

This was my initial argument for the A7R, but the A7 II with its IBIS and improved layout and grip currently outweigh it a little. Ditching the AA filter would be a plus, especially since it also reduces light loss a little.

Thanks for the responses, everyone.  Yes, I would have preferred no AA filter myself.  I keep considering whether to get one or not and that would have been a like.  A silent shutter is another such thing that looks possible but is not happening.
