My experience with the E-M10 (having upgraded in the spring from the E-PL2) is that the stabilization of the E-M10 operates very well (seems a bit better than my E-PL2 which was good) and is consistent with the analysis in the DPReview review:

"The E-M10 offers a '3-axis' image stabilization system, a pared down version of the '5-axis' system offered in the other OM-D models. It's still a very effective system, reliably giving me 2 extra stops of shutter speed at the long end of the 14-42mm F3.5-5.6 II zoom lens (when comparing the number of steady shots achieved with it turned on and off). Movie IS uses a combination of the 3-axis mechanical system and electronic stabilization."

In short, I think the CR review indication that the E-M10 IBIS is bad is bonkers.  I stopped bothering with CR camera reviews years ago.  For camera evaluation, I will stick with the photography publications and sites for information gathering and user reports on the forums.
