Single memory card slot
Omits PC sync socket
Not as good at subject tracking as some Nikon DSLR cameras

Only three S lenses this year
Lenses are pricey on their own
XQD card is expensive and overkill
Not many native lenses released yet
FTZ adapter adds a lot of bulk
Middling autofocus performance

Single card slot uses non-standard XQD format
Touchscreen display doesn't flip around
Those needing a faster burst rate
Greater buffer depth or the absolute best focus tracking
