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.
