Impressive results for sure.

Im also pretty sure that the listed rating of 8 stops of stabilization applies at shorter focal lengths, where the IBIS makes more of a difference. As you increase the FL, the effect is diminished. Meaning almost getting 8 full stops at the long end is even more impressive.

You're probably right about that. I felt like I got so-so results at 8 stops, ok results at 7 stops and pretty amazing results at 6 stops. It is true that any movement (like from my beating heart) gets magnified the longer the zoom is.

That's an interesting test. I've used that same system for improving a few family photos where I had a little blur due to camera shake when the shutter speed dropped indoors.

It may not always be perfect but it's great to see an improvement
