Re: Aaaaaaand...

I may give this camera serious consideration for a compact camera and not the M5. Other than an OVF vs EVF it is very similar to the M5 for much less cash. An even larger price difference than with the similar t7I. One issue remains. There is no way to correct for front/back focus errors except to use live view. Of course, the M5 doesn't have this issue because its AF is all live view. Since Canon refuses to add this feature to the Rebel series, I am still on the fence. I have an SL1 and like the camera but I have couple of lenses that have front/back focus problems that I can't use and reserve for my 70D with MFA corrections. No I am not sending the camera and lenses to Canon when a firmware fix would solve this type of problem. Perhaps, the SL2 will put the pricing of M5 into a more realistic range.
