This discussion occurs every time every time a new Rebel is introduced. The problem is that the the Rebel is an entry level DSLR. Most people who buy them have no clue about how to operate a DSLR and most will never take the time to fully appreciate a fraction of what their camera can do. Putting MFA on a beginner camera is a recipe for disaster. Tech service would be overwhelmed.

The picture is the score. The processing is the performance - Ansel Adams

I could not agree more. I have friends/relatives who own various Rebels. None of them bother learning anything about these cameras. They use the GREEN mode, the original kit lens and are happy with their pictures which are "good enough".

I assume that in 2015 none of these people would buy a Rebel. Maybe a mirrorless camera
