Don't need it with mirrorless. I have never used mine on my 5D Mark III either.Did anyone notice the lack of DoF preview button?

Well I like it a lot, but of course you don't need in i mirrorless, as you see the picture as it will be exposed in the EVF.Don't need it with mirrorless. I have never used mine on my 5D Mark III either.
that's a great summary image. thanks.I've scaled the R's hotshoe to 5D/80D's and aligned backs. (It's probably not pixel-perfect.)

I think we can say good-bye to the DSLR classification we are used to. The mirrorless do have partly other spec sheets and will create their own classifications. We shouldn't compare the EOS R to a 6D2 or 5DIV. Instead we do have a first mirrorless FF from Canon. This one will not necessarily have the same target customers as a 6D2 or a 5DIV. Only some overlap with either of both. There will surely be some inherent mirrorless disadvantages in the years to come that many people will cause to keep their current DSLR for the time being. So there will be new target customers which can tick most of their wishboxes with an EOS R. Others will skip these first FF Mirrorless cams as long as they do not support functions they are used to on their DSLRs.People aren't referring to the kit price, they are referring to the US body only price.
The 6D2 is a $1599 camera presently in the US, but we think of it how it launched at a ~$2k price point. Many people is where the action is for the enthusiast FF market.
But not knowing the specs, we could have a D850-->Z7 sort of situation here, and this might be a mirrorless 5D4 and not a mirrorless 6D2. The sensor is not always a clear tell. We need to know more about the other specs first.

Why does the new Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM lens in the size comparison image look like it attached to the body using a silver mount adapter ? Surely this shouldn't be required with a RF lens !
Less specs maybe, but better quality...Your perception must be about the bodies. It certainly isn't true when it comes to lenses.
i find it strange, that in list of lenses, IS is specifically mentioned for the 35/1.8, but for none of the other lenses. so it does not look like a simple typo ...
has canon not always denoted IS in the lens name?
The rumors were sub-$2K, so I’m hoping that number holds true.
A real hand grip. Canon color. Maybe a surprise or two (not likely at this point).
Meh. I was only interested in an MILC if it was in EF mount. I agree with LeeJay, these toys should be below $1K at most. Real men use OVFs.
A lot of pros will pop one of these in the bag as a back up because of its light weight and small size
...and because it uses the same batteries + same speedlites + (with an adaptor) the same lenses as the SLR on their other shoulder.
But I feel those will be early adopter pros. Many pros will hold out for a stouter grip + two cards (if we only get one) + the 5-series control wheel and more spacious button layout around the grip.

I’m not use to not be immediately disappointed by a Canon rumor. But they can still screw this up. 2x crop on 4K, bad codec, no IBIS; subpar dinamic range and ISO; bad autofocus with EF lenses, battery life...

You can't use new 28-70/2 on your 5DIV? Not nice .....
Color me skeptical, but I just don’t believe there will be useful -6EV AF. That’s what... 1/10 second exposure at f/1.2 ISO 102,400?But -6 EV AF (if real, not shackled with a lot of fine print) + truly silent shooting could make this rig a darling for wedding photographers who don't want to pop a flash or make noise during the ceremony or reception.
