Great doc, but horrible color grading. Was pretty distracting. 🙁
Referring to the round-up reviews of mirrorless cameras – I really really don’t understand this desire for Panasonic cameras like the GH4 to have body stabilisation because it does cause the sensor to overheat and hot pixelate, which is what even the best Olympus cameras do if you shoot fast sequences, video or just shoot extra long exposures; feel the back on an Ollie, it can get really hot and the picture degrades: Olympus even note this in their book of words.
Many photographers are more than happy to use Panasonic lenses on their Olympus backs, go and look on Flickr to see what they’re using. If you want stabilisation then Panny lenses have OIS and it is equivalent to 5-axis
My own tests (I’m a physicist specialising in measuring radiation e.g. light, and testing and calibrating instruments e.g. cameras) indicate that the 3-axis E-PL7 produces better results over 50mm focal length when allowed to use OIS (which Olympus have it default to) than its own IBIS system, by about 1EV at 150mm focal length.
If we look at the other camera systems, the best long lenses do have image stabilisation whether the camera has body stabilisation or not, this is not by chance. Even on a tripod long lenses vibrate and IS will stabilise the image whereas body stabilisation won’t. The two stabilisation systems address different problems: IBIS is best for hand-held slow shutter with wide lenses and works really well for that but for long lens wildlife work you want OIS.
