Re: Sony A7R II scores 98, new king of DxO Mark (by a nose)
Within the DXO scoring methodology, downsampling helps, and the more you downsample the better. For whatever reason they don't consider sensor resolution in their camera scores, and instead consider it in their lens scores.

Actually, it is advantageous to the higher res sensor, in that it improves via noise-reducing averaging the dynamic range, which is the big ticket item.
Yes, it helps in terms of noise reduction for the sake of charts but even if there is slightly more noise in a 50mp file based on a per pixel level the extra detail of the 50mp opens new possibilities such as being able to push noise reduction further.
