Canon has always offered IS, in a wide range of weights and prices. The only requirement was that it had to be a zoom, a zoom, or a zoom.
Prior to 2009, there was no Canon prime with IS, shorter than 300mm, that cost less than $5500 (think Canon 200 f2L IS). When the 100L IS macro was offered, I leaped on it the first month. Then, when Canon offered the lightweight 24, 28, and 35mm IS primes, I bought the 28.
Now I think the main missing (affordable) primes that need IS are the 50mm, 135mm and 200mm, with especially the 50mm crying out for IS.
I love the IS in faster primes for international travel, because I can use them in low light without needing a tripod.
