They are really minor things:
Having a GPS unit onboard would have been nice. I know that there were issues with space due to the new pentaprism, so it was a piece that had to be removed. This isnt a deal breaker to me at all because we have an alternative in the O-GPS1 unit (which I do own for use on my K-5).
Having a secondary SD slot as a UHS-1 instead of dual UHS-2 slots is also intriguing, since they are backwards compatible with slower cards. This may come down to a lack of space if the processing chips are bigger for UHS-2 (or heat or power concerns), but it seems like a bit of odd choice. Again, not a deal breaker since there is at least one UHS-2 slot.
A fixed screen is the biggest sticking point. I know its been explained on why they did what they did, but Ive been in a number of situations where Ive had to put the camera in an odd position (ie - on the ground), and had real challenges composing the image due to being unable to use the viewfinder, and unable to really see the screen (think wildlife shooting, any large movements and youve spooked your target away). There were some rumors that we may be able to use our phones as a monitor for LV in a sense, but I dont know if that has been confirmed or not. If thats the case, it would solve 95% of my concern making this a non issue for me.
