I see very real improvement and would go for S-II, but S-I ain't bad if money is an issue.
Also, please realize that with Digital Lens Optimization in Raw conversion, both are better than they show here, before correction.

One bit of info i left out.... I have the 24-702.8 VI. I think (with the VII being released) they are worth about $800 for a nice copy; mine is mint and i have the original box, and all the accessories, all without a scratch. I figured everything i was reading was correct and honestly, if they hadn't changed filter sizes, i'd probably have already swapped them out.
