I own a 5d MKII and was wondering if there was a way of removing the information on the top of the screen when reviewing an image, that shows the shutter speed, f stop and image numbers. I know newer bodies it's an option with just pushing info, but was wondering if there was any way of doing it with the 5D MKII, mainly just to keep a clean look when viewing photos.

Has anyone had any luck with this? I could of sworn I had seen this done on another 5D MKII somewhere, but after using the MKIII, I for sure would appreciate not having the info on screen.

Thanks in advance.

When you're previewing the image, press the Info button until you get what you want. The results will stick until you press it again.

No, I can't remove that info line from the top of the LCD, either. Seems to be nothing in the manual. But with the default aspect ratio, it seems they're just using what would otherwise be wasted screen real estate.
ETA ~ Or, more probably, the screen was designed to accommodate that basic exposure info. D'oh!

Nope, can't be done. Note the difference between 5D2 and 5D3 Info screen's rotation:

Yup, looks like it isn't possible. I thought I had seen a mkII with this done, but I was mistaken. Thanks for the help
