Does anybody use the Image Stabilization feature on the Leica T.

 

I thought I tried it in the beginning but found it to be not very effective.  

 

I was just reading the article below in which the author briefly talks about using the Image Stabilization feature for night photography:

Perhaps I should give it another try...

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

My previous system was Olympus M4/3. Now THAT had image stabilisation 

 

I agree the Leica T version is not very effective.

My Fuji XE-1 with 55-200 mm lens is amazing at full zoom...very slow imaging, yet holds it sharpness.  It is very very good.

 

OTOH, I use my M's and just fit in...no image stabilization...but I don't seem to miss it.

I think to remember that it helped when using the 55-135, but I really have to check if I still have activated.

We all know it is not hardware IS but maybe it still has some benefit for certain things.

I have no experience with IBIS, only with the OIS of the SL 24-90 and that works exceptionally good I find.  

 

I have been shooting at 1/30s where I would normally be using 1/250s, so about a 3-stop gain, and with good results.  

 

As none of the T lenses have OIS hopefully true IBIS will find its way to the TL2...
