One question, reviews state that these new wides; 24/28/35, have Canon's newer IS; not the hybrid of the 100L, does this mean that these new lenses are tripod sensing like many of the newer zooms and teles are?
Jerry, "Hybrid IS" compensates for both angle camera shake and shift camera shake. This is not related to tripod auto-detecting. From their manuals, IS should be turned off when tripod mounted.
Now, it seems like the 24mm f/2.8 IS and 28mm f/2.8 IS do not have a Hybrid IS system.
How about the 35mm? Many sites are describing the 35mm f/2 IS having Hybrid IS. Canon does not seem to use 'Hybrid' when describing its IS system but did write: "It can detect normal shooting or panning, and automatically switches to the optimal IS mode"...so perhaps the 35mm f/2 IS is equipped with a "smarter" not "hybrid" IS system when comparing it to the 24 and 28mm IS.
