If you are referring to the fact they say "3 axis" then read the specs on the same page and see that it is only "pitch/yaw" and no roll mentioned, so the E-PL6 has the same 2 axis as the E-PL5.

Some marketing twirp has seen the "3" there and thought it meant the IBIS when the "3" is only a side note number.

The E-PL6 is only a slightly fancier E-PL5 and obviously being dumped at a low price in USA. To get 3 axis IBIS you need the E-PL7.
