An un-stabilized brick?

Like others said, size and weight of the 16-55 rather help to keep it steady. In addition, I believe, the greater physical inertia of a heavier system rather helps against shutter shock.

I never use a tripod for "normal" photography, only for special purpose.

So, keep the usual shutter speed for non stabilized systems, and you'll be fine.

I like the lens and the images it produces. It is my standard "travel" lens. It is very well built, very solid. The aperture ring is excellent. 16 mm is really useful as a wide angle. Its AF is super fast and silent.

Regards,

Martin
