During the presentation they mentioned that the image stabilization is so good a gimbal is no longt necessary. However none of the reviewers talk about this at all. What do you all think? Is it an over exaggeration?

All I can add to this is that the combined OIS and IBIS using the 150-600mm was really quite astonishing. On activating, handheld, it felt like being suddenly locked down. This was for stills though, not video as this was the core of my testing.

I found OIS in XF100-400 excellent (I got sharp image using 1.4TC (560mm) @1/15sec handheld). If the new H2s+XF150-600 really had ~6 EV efficiency at 600mm it would be great. Do you think it's as stable as "bare" 100-400 with no IBIS body or better:)

Cheers,

Artur
