The one thing I miss the most from the 5DmIV to the R is the size of the body.  I heard the R5 is a bit larger than the R and fits the hand better.  But I miss the larger body size and hope the R5 is closer to the 5-series.  It's the one issue that I have with mirrorless.  Just because you can make things smaller, doesn't always mean it's better.  I'm hoping my (hopefully soon to be delivered) R5 will be a bit more ergonomic in the hand vs the R.

(And the R was by far the most comfortable mirrorless I have held when I was looking to try mirrorless out.  There is NO WAY I could ever shoot with a Sony as they were very uncomfortable and nearly impossible for my big paws to hold and use comfortably).
