The editors didn't like
No headphone jack
Poor LCD visibility in direct sunlight
Impractical DSLR form factor for run-and-gun shooting
The 11point autofocus system performed well but is a step down from pro DSLRs and the competing camera from Nikon
Maximum 1/180 flash sync speed is a notch slow for studio strobe work
Only one SD card slot
No headphone jack for video

While the camera has nice extra features
Like Wi-Fi and GPS support
It's missing some basics for the price like on-camera flash
Multiple card slots
And a 100 percent-coverage viewfinder
Not the fastest camera on the block. Viewfinder only offers 97 percent coverage. Not compatible with EF-S lenses. GPS saps battery life. No flash. Slow focus during video recording. No PC Sync socket
No builtin flash
Single SD/SDHC/SDXC card slot (vs. Nikon D600's dual card slot)
Slightly soft images on default settings (depending on lens used)
JPEG engine struggles with low-contrast fine detail at low ISO sensitivities
Low density 11 point autofocus array with only one cross-type AF point
Single card slot (SD)
Slow burst rate compared to its full frame peers
Cannot configure common live view and movie mode options independently
Video output prone to moiré artifacts
Slightly lower resolution than all of its full frame peers
