Re: Canon Sx 230/220 Zoom

What matters is how steady your hands are and how long the exposure is. This is dependent on the user's body/hand stability and the lighting conditions, so there is no simple answer to your question.

It would be like asking, "What size and thickness of gloves should I buy for my daughter?"

Outdoors on a sunny day, not having had too many cups of coffee and with careful, deliberate, steady holding, you probably won't need a tripod; the IS alone will do. In all other scenarios your are taking a risk shooting at the full tele position and a tripod might be in order.
