Pros: Handling, speed, price, quality, 12mp, 14bit, live view, screen
Cons: no dial on back, kit lens has rotating focus front end
Opinion:

Pros: Many long for a spot meter & Canon has done that this time.
Cons: Sadly the ISO range is from 100 to 800, somewhat limited.
Opinion:

With this new model, would be photographers on a tight budget would opt for it and spend more on Canon L lenses
for quality photos.
