missing 'defs not, underwhelmed' option

I will probably not buy an R, but the lack of a mirror is not the problem. I do not insist upon a DSLR system. It is, instead, the lack of other important features. First, the removal of the toggle/joystick, and requiring me to use a “laggy” touchscreen, to move the AF point, is a serious problem.

The second big problem is that the R seems to have no capability to allow an external Speedlite to project an AF-assist beam, for low-light AF. The R is not yet ready to play in the deep (dark) end of the pool.

I agree. I have waited for a long time for a Canon 135 mirrorless system, but as expected, way too many misses for me. Maybe someday...
