I agree. I'd love an artic screen and have often considered a 60/70/80D I don't need for this reason alone. (Couldn't care less about touch function. Toys have touch screens. Real tools have proper keys, buttons, switches or dials.) However, Canon have a policy not to put articulating screens on pro or semi-pro cameras. Apparently they regard articulated screen as being too easy to damage and too hard to weatherproof. So the 1D, 5D and 7D lines do not have artic screens, while most of the lesser models do. So touch: yes. Arrtic: no. (Personally, I'd rather it was the other way around.)
