No Eye Sensor ?
2

The part about removing the eye sensor really bugs me.  It sounds like it makes the camera almost unmanagable to me.  Having the rear screen on when using OVF is annoying, but having the touch function on is sure to cause multiple problems.  Turning touch off removes one of the great features of the camera.  I am just shaking my head that they could do something so stupid.  The SL1 worked fine as is.  I always thought the user interface was well thought out.  If this is a change to save a few $ on an eye sensor it is really upsetting.  If someone actually thought adding the button was better ... well that may be even worse.

I was all set to buy one, but not now.  Small thing maybe, but incredibly STUPID!!!!!!
