Anyone have noticed how good the stabilization is on the Q2?

I've heard for stills, people are going as low as 1/15 (granted they might have great technique or good timing at the moment), but is it noticeably working? Im assuming ill be using 1/80 which doesnt trigger OIS auto (since its triggered at below 1/60 in auto right?).

For video: I've seen some videos, but since you cant adjust any settings, it seems like the video ive seen are somewhat jittery. (not that its made for video, but just in case i want quick clips)

 

Just wondering in general if anyone has noticed it working well. When I had the Leica Q2, I didnt really notice it

Q2 needs at least 1/100, but 1/125th is better. Too many pixels to keep steady.

Q2 stabilisation needs to settle first for good results. If you rush it, slow shutter speeds will be blurry too. 

However, Q2 stab has nothing to rave about. It is not Olympus IBIS system

0.5 second hand-held exposure - but edged my bets with 6-7 shots and this one was sharp on the trunk 😁

I like it that when people ask a question on here, Dan usually gives us real examples that actually show the answer. 👍
