I don't think you would ever get in-body image stabilization with a  
French Format sized sensor in the standard mount. Nor would legacy  
lenses have enough image area to cover it properly.

Since Pentax folks have stated that they feel in-body image  
stabilization is a better thing to their way of thinking than in-lens  
stabilization, and since they're delivering a whole lineup of new DA  
series lenses optimized for 16x24 sized sensors scheduled over the  
next several years, I think these new rumors of French Format sensors  
are just frenching bullshit.
