Re: Considering the Panasonic 20mm with GF6 but concerned about lack of OIS

its a fast(ish) prime and fast primes rarely have IS because it isn't as needed as faster shutter speeds are more viable. this is nothing new. there are millions of dslr's out there with no in body IS an where very few of their primes have IS. IS may be nice to have but just isn't that important. If there is anything moving in your shots IS won't help you anyway…you need to use faster shutter speed.
