Ok, I believe I'm seeing something nobody has posted here.

Go look at the closeup crop of the camera on EOSHD...do you see what I see?

something that could be a tilting screen?

Good eye. I didn't notice that and it could be...or possibly an external screen on the rig?

That would be a weird place for a part of a gimbal rig or an attachment such as a screen as it would make it hard to balance the gimbal setup. I came to the conslusion It's either jpg artifact/nothing or likely a tilt screen.
Edit:
Just googled a bit, gimbal seems to be the dji ronin with the red screws and the battery shape vertically. The Ronin doesn't have anything there. Also the tiltscreen blur seems a lighter part, could be a reflective surface, It's lighter than any other black part where the sun hits.

Nice find, definitely looks like an upwards-tilting display to me, kinda like the D750's rather than the 80D's.

As a 5D3 owner, I can't really take issue with having a display like that. I once had a 60D and had no issues with the tilt screen, though I never really used it. I'm sure if the Nikon D750 has done so well for professionals on the other side it can't be that bad on the 5D.

That said, I'm not going to be getting a 5D mark IV anytime soon and I'm not big on video, so I'm not the right audience for this. The 1DX mark II is going to be my next body purchase.

Of all the specs presumed coming, it baffles me that the camera seems to be pegged at 24MP. The Nikon D810 is 36.3 MP with DR that crushes Canon. BTW I shoot a 5D MK II for my portrait work and 5DS R for my architectural photography.

Anything less than 36MP and this guy is switching to Sony for portrait work and PhaseOne or Hassleblad for architectural work.

From my perspective, the MK IV needs:
36-40MP
Much better DR
Better low light focusing

That's what the 5DsR is there for. Those specs might fit YOUR needs but the 5DIII / IV will suit a majority of busy shooters managing huge amounts of data if it stays in the 22-24 Mp range.

I am highly confident you'll get one of those things.

One out of three is not a pass.

Reminds me of something a friend of mine who did video used to tell clients:

Fast. Cheap. Good.

You can't get all three, but you can choose which two you want.

You can create an arbitrarily large and demanding set of criteria, and then assert that less than 100% "is not a pass." In the end, it's just a tool: for some it will serve their needs and they will buy it; for others it will not and they won't.

Mark 4, mark 5, whatever.... it matters not as Canon seem unable to get the cameras to market here in the UK, by the time I get my new Canon the competition will have cameras that get up get dressed and go out and take the shots for you! :o
