The sensor is stellar. The IBIS is best kept off because it blurs images. I've heard to try it on vertical only might improve it. Shutter shock problems at certain focal lengths and shutter speeds. You can boost the ISO to combat that and like I said, vertical only IBIS might help reduce shutter shock. The camera works well, IMO, with a vintage smallish 50mm f1.8 lens. Enjoy!

I don't know why others report problems with the IBIS because I haven't had this blurred image problem. I've tested and there is no doubt in my mind the IBIS makes the photo clearer. I never turn it off unless I am shooting action. That's more to increase the response of the camera when using high shutter speeds and tracking movement.  I have had shutter shock problems but the anti shock does a pretty good job taming it.  The camera isn't perfect but it's capable of stellar images.
