Does OIS degrade a bit IG?

How much power OIS in 24-90 use when is on? I have huge tremor in my hands and if I shoot under 1/250sec. you can notice it in the photos. I try to have OIS on as much as I can but I am afraid that it will drain the batt. About possible image degradation I don't worry.  ;)

Hardly anything in my experience.

 

I have it on all the time ...... and have been on holiday the last 4 days with the camera switched on from 9am to 10pm and just let it go into sleep mode. Never used a whole battery any day and averaged 300 photos daily.

I don't know exactly how much power it draws, but since it is normally in sleep mode it shouldn't be a big deal.  If you want something to turn off to save a little power, you could turn off the GPS function on the SL.  In my experience that makes enough of a difference to notice in a day of shooting.  In any event, the battery life on the SL is quite good for a mirrorless camera, and the OIS in the 24-90 has little impact on that.

Thank you for the input on OIS batt. consumption. This is good to know as I always shoot handhold. From now it will be always on. :)
I don't chimp or use GPS or WiFi. One time when I was shooting in theater I got almost 680 shots before the batt. was down. :)
I have 2 extra batt. with me all the time. Even if I don't need them it is good to have. :D
