I did see that and discarded it immediately as a marketing gimmick. FWIW, correct me if I am wrong but the "gain" in IS is a virtual one: it would'nt mean that you can actually take the same shot using four stops slower shutter/narrower aperture as metered and still get the same results if taken with original metering. Still, if it only meant hand holding/panning improves by about 4 stops, it would be impressive. Were'nt the second generation IS already offering 3 stop gain but in a panning mode only ? - Harman __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
