If anyone sees this and has any other suggestions outside the Canon ecosystem (sacrilege, I know) I would be open to that, too. Even though I have always had Canons and loved their output, I know there have been big advances in larger-sensored cameras with relatively small bodies (I am thinking of the mirrorless cameras) and at this point I am open minded. It seems that Canon is somewhat behind in that area.

It's not an area that Canon seems to care very much about really. Lots of people have had praise for their EOS-M mirrorless APS-C camera and it's been available at some really good prices. But really Canon's big thing is the DSLR area and they just haven't been too worried about making a big dent in that.

Remember that there's more to smaller, mirrorless cameras than just compact size - the controls tend to be smaller and fewer and the EVF (if there is one) is certainly different (to put it euphemistically) than an OVF. Good luck with your decision and enjoy.
