Re: 2 new entry cams ....

Yes, right on point.

These cameras, just like ones in cell phones are so dumbed down,  for the rank novice use that even a trained monkey can take a picture.  Set on "A" mode or open the phone's camera app and click away.

We on this forum are more experienced photographers and can see the shortcomings of this level of camera.  John Q. Public doesn't give a crap about DPAF system, "L" glass, 12 stop dynamic range of the sensor or RAW (CR2) file format that has to be post processed.  All the general public wants to do is pull the camera out, turn it on, leave on Auto mode and click away to post on Facebook or other social media, once they figure out how to get the images off the memory card.

Bash Canons move all you want, but they are going after a different market with these models.  Like I said before, wait until the sales numbers come out before you pick up the pitchforks and torches and go after Canon.
