Serious problems at Canon?

The Rebel EOS line brought new sensor technology, and real improvements to IQ, to each new iteration.

350D 8mp

400d 10mp

450d 12mp

500d 15mp

550d 18mp

But what's happened lately? We've now had 4 iterations of the same sensor (in regards to image quality), and mid-2013 us APS-C users still hobbled with 2009 IQ tech.

Did the 2011 Tsunami ruin Canon more than we thought? Did the recent leadership change do something internally and all the engineers got up & left? Or is it just technology starting to plateau (probably not when you look at other brands though).

Maybe the SL1 or 700D will have real improvements, time will tell.
