I’d sell the 5D4, that way your 70-200 (and any future RF lenses) will be compatible with both your bodies. Unless you absolute need the 5D4’s faster drive speed, longer battery life, or dual card slots on a second body, I think the R is just as capable. Also if both of your bodies are R series, that would give you better continuity with layout and controls.

Personally I prefer the R’s size, ergonomics, and autofocus system to the 5D4’s.
