5. No in-body IS
6. No articulated LCD screen
7. Proprietary RAW format
8. Virtual horizon can't actively correct tilt (since the sensor isn't tiltable)
9. Large and heavy
10. Contrast detect AF is slow and doesn't support subject tracking across the frame
11. AF assist light is of the bright white type, more annoying and less effective than the red-pattern type
12. 12MP is lower than the competition (though for most subjects the differences is minimal)
13. No 1080p video; internal microphone is mono only
14. AF microadjust doesn't support separate adjustment for the wide and tele ends of zoom lenses
15. Low value for money compared to most other cameras with similar build and image quality
16. No pixel remapping
17. No multi-shot HDR mode
18. Program shift doesn't offer direct switching to A or S modes via the front and rear dials
19. No manual shift (AEL in M mode doesn't lock resulting EV)
20. No user memory presets to quickly override all camera settings
21. No LCD color calibration
22. No white balance sensor; No full-correction incandescent preset
21. No easy way to view dust on the sensor (dust alert)
22. No live histogram in LV
23. No internal viewfinder curtain
24. The rattle of d-rings can be heard in videos

I hope it helps :-)
