How did it go? Is there an improvment with the ibis ? I have the Fuji XS10. It is shame you are forced to buy a lens station.

IBIS is finally working after I've updated the lens to version 3. Now, there is a clear difference between turning IBIS off and on. I've just shot some sample images, which I'll add to this post. The ones with IBIS off are basically what you got before updating, irrespective of the IBIS settings.

Concering the need to buy a lens station: I agreee, that this is annoying. However, you could buy it, update, and then return it. To be honest, that's what I did. (Hoping, Mr. Bezos is not reading this.)

Without IBIS:

IBIS off (=IBIS on, before updating) #1

IBIS off (=IBIS on, before updating) #2

IBIS off (=IBIS on, before updating) #3

With IBIS, afer update:

IBIS on (lens v.3) #1

IBIS on (lens v.3) #2

IBIS on (lens v.3) #3

Do what you will, but if it were me, I wouldn't choose to brag about buying/using/returning on a public forum. Not exactly regarded as an acceptable process IMHO.

I will, however, give you full credit for decent taste in Scotch.
