This rumor doesn't even mention the mount type. Not interesting...

Yet the spec list that this thread is about states that the camera has IBIS......The quick comeback is that Canon is sitting at 49% of ILC units without IBIS and tends to know what it is doing. (I don't say that backhandedly, I"m just pointing out the obvious.)
Canon may believe, or possibly even have market data to back up the following:
(these are theories, I don't present them as fact)
That said, they may roll out IBIS on FF mirrorless and say 'the EVF changes what is needed' and sell that story. We'll see. But Neuro may be right that IBIS isn't coming. EOS M still doesn't have mechanical all-purpose IBIS yet -- just the electronic version for video, ya?
- IS on lenses is more profitable for Canon
- IS on lenses lets them keep body prices (i.e. standard production costs) down
- Lens IS is more effective than IBIS, and that Canon can demonstrate that to consumers -- either in number of stops, the convenience of defeating it / tweaking its performance with a switch on the barrel, etc.

Perhaps Canon is going with a regular sized body, and thermal management is one of the reasons why.....Steve Huff, THE ML guy of the past years, is currently on a Canon revival trip, because an overheating A9 ruined a video shooting he did (check recent posts on http://www.stevehuffphoto.com). He seems to love the bulky 1-DX II, not only for its video output but also for its stills. And what happened? All those haters like those flooding DPR threads now call him a Canon fanboy - only because he wanted a reliable tool for his purposes. That's all what Canon is about, according to my own experience (aside with another brand's gear): Canon gear is just reliably working with out of the box results that don't need permanently heavy-sided post processing. Saves you a lot of lifetime and nerves. Canon is the Toyota of camera industries - and that's great.
Agree. I can imagine that it is not so easy to cool a sensor efficiently with IBIS, because its hard to realize a strong thermal connection with the body then. Or you would have to cool the sensor actively, with attached Peltier elements, but that's hard to implement with a backlit sensor imo, you'd have to frame the sensor with those elements and hope that heat transport from the sensor's inner areas still works well enough. Plus, active cooling would drain the battery faster. So I think a pro tool for extended 4k+ video shooting will better have a fixed sensor, maybe better not backlit, that is thermally well connected with a not to small camera body (as long as camera makers stick with silicon sensor technology and don't change to a more efficient semiconductor material such as gallium arsenide - and that will not happen in the foreseeable future).Perhaps Canon is going with a regular sized body, and thermal management is one of the reasons why.....
If its essentially a 5D4 without a mirror and with the same weather sealing, Canon will get my money.
I think you're going to be disappointed if you're expecting a 5D4 in this 1st release. This is supposed to be the prosumer model, with a higher megapixel, more pro model to follow (some say in 6 months). I think we'll be lucky to see an improved 6D2 mirrorless model, hopefully with better DR, eye AF, IBIS?, intervalometer, better spread of AF points, 4K video to name a few. But the pro model will be later.I am really looking forward to this new camera. I just hope Canon is willing to sacrifice sales on the 5D4, because if they cripple this camera to be worse in some way than the 5D4, I do not see it being competitive (okay, it will probably have only one card slot, but that is ok).

With a dual pixel sensor the spread of AF points should be quite a bit better than the 6D2.
I think if Canon implements a sort of IBIS in their new ML series, this is a signal that they do not recognize those cameras as a real rugged pro tool.
"PROS for the 6DII for vlogging:Steve Huff, THE ML guy of the past years, is currently on a Canon revival trip, because an overheating A9 ruined a video shooting he did (check recent posts on http://www.stevehuffphoto.com).
LOL. Sony A9 is definitely a tool that can be and is actually used also by Pro's. It is reasonably rugged. It does have IBIS. It does have 4k capture. And yet it does not overheat.
"Innovative Canon" should be able to achieve similar technical feats, no?
Overheating is not listed on Sony’s spec sheet. Since many on this forum base their perception of a camera entirely on its spec sheet, for them the issue simply doesn’t exist.Except apparently it does overheat at times
Yes, but will it have a HEADPHONE JACK???
Basically what I said before. It is very unlikely that Canon would leave the christmas market cake for Sony and Nikon without a fight, this move would have been very stupid.
