Several of the high-end tele's have a dedicated 'tripod-IS'
mode....which then also nicely works when such a lens is adapted to a
Canon video-camera.
Just a different algorithm, because the vibrations/oscillations
on/from a tripod are different than from a human hand/arm....
Btw, IIRC, this 'tripod-IS' mode is even auto-detect, not something
you can/must select manually (which then also nicely confirms the
fact that the vibrations are indeed quite different from tripod vs
human, otherwise the lens could never auto-select between the two
modes reliably).
