(rumored) Canon Full Frame Mirrorless leaked pics

I'm not sure why people are immediately dismissing this camera. I'm still somewhat excited and will probably be replacing my XC15 with this camera for gimbal operation.
A couple of things I like:
Full coverage DPAF
The manual focus guide from the cinema line.
C-log.
EF-s lens compatibility.
Multiple bit rate options.
The RF multi function lens ring appears to allow a near stepless change in the aperture of the lens.

This is by far the best small camera by Canon for video shooting. If this camera was released as an ef-s camera, then I think people wouldn't be dismissing it so quickly.
 
It was just an excuse for me to post my ridiculous picture, again...

As Crocodile Dundee would say, "That's not ridiculous. This is ridiculous." With the doubler in place, this is an 18-1000mm f/2.8 lens. 40lbs. 8" front element. Parfocal. Another 10-15lbs for the head. If you ever wondered what it looks like inside a box lens. Yes, just an excuse to post this ridiculous setup.
 
Such a relatively powerful machine at the time...now a mere science project. I miss the good old days.
 
I wonder if Canon or Metabones will create a speedbooster for ef lenses. I doubt it, but the mft people seem to really like theres's.
 
I really wanted to like this camera. It would be the perfect b-cam to my C200, a great gimbal camera too. I have eight Canon lenses so I could buy the ND EF/EF-S lens adapter and be good to go. But no 4K 60p. Really bad rolling shutter. 8-bit only although Canon does get props for 4:2:2 internal. But then I looked at the rolling shutter, ughh. Looks as bad as my 5D MKII was, that used to drive me crazy and even on a gimbal, that rolling shutter is a deal breaker. Like really bad. No IBIS either. Screw it, the XT-3 buries this camera and I can say as a C200 owner and C300 MKII user, I now think the Fuji color science on the XT-3 is better than Canon. That's impressive as hell. And I like the Eterna present for the times when I have to NOT CC and LUT. It's going to make me nuts having to buy and own two sets of lenses (keep my existing glass for the C200 but have to buy at least three new lenses for the XT-3) but jeez Canon, you came up short with this one and it's overpriced. Compare the value equation here to the XT-3, no comparison.
