Hi! Could this be a new Canon camera? Doesn't look like a 5D/7D for me.. (eg.
edges near hotshoe, taped model).



The man is Kai Pfaffenbach for Reuters, noted Canon photographer and this was taken at IAAF Daegu.

Or am I just wrong? I'm Nikon shooter so I can make mistakes. :D

It might have the new 8-15 L fisheye. But pro photographers sometimes tape over brand names and logos on their equipment so they aren't advertising for the manufacturer and not giving free advertising because they probably would rather get free gear to use from the manufacturer instead. Similar to product placement in TV shows and movies: no use to show logos if the show or movie isn't getting paid extra to show or use them.
 
The canon logo is taped!
Looks like a 5dii to me?

The nearest existing model looks like the 5D II, but the prism housing looks squarer on this. It's not a 7D because there's no flash pop-up button and the prism housing is too big for a 1D.

One thing is certain though - it doesn't have an articulating LCD screen!

Looks the same as mine. The lines near the prism may look a little different due to the angle of view, and shadows and glare.
