I use a couple of Canon EF portrait lenses (135/2L & 85/1.8 USM) with EOS R and I don't have any major problems as i keep the shutter speed around 1/200 most of the time. But I was wondering how effective is the IBIS on R6 with these EF lenses. Is it still 5-axis with EF lenses or downgrades to 3-axis?

Some used R6's are popping up here and there and I am contemplating if its going to benefit my STILL images in any way - (No interest in video)?

Thanks in advance

Of course, it is very effective, maybe you can shoot at 1/4s with the 85mm, but be aware there’s a bug in the firmware when ibis is set to always on and using non stabilised lenses.

Thanks for the headsup
