The 1s having a smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field tougher and the Pentax K-1 II will produce greater detail with its extra 24 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more aged 1s will be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
