There is a interesting interview at DPR with Nikon executives after CP+.
They are very clear about poor acceptance of mirrorless in the USA and Europe, its poor. In Asia, its much better. Nikon claims that people in the USA feel that a large DSLR provides better images due to its size.
Another thing to consider is the size of hands. My hands are very large, and on a tiny camera, I find it difficult to push just one button at a time. I think this is part of the story.
I'd like to see a FF mirrorless Canon camera that was full sized and used EF lenses. The issue is AF in low light, but the dual pixel AF system seems to be fairly good in low light, so maybe its coming.
Right now, sales of all cameras is slow, and companies are not spending a lot to tool and market completely new technologies, but instead stick to the well developed and cheaper to implement technologies.
I do think that the EOS M system will be developed into a big selling US product, but not soon.
