My Google skills must be bad, I can't find information on what the Digital IS crop factor is? Or the Enhanced Digital IS crop factor?

It's pretty easy to search that the Sony ZV-E1 Dynamic Stabilization for example is 1.3x.

Why isn't it easy to find out what the Canon's stabilization crop factor is?

Probably because those Canon models do not have it, or most Canon shooters do not care about it?

They definitely do have it, it's just not discussed what the actual crop factor is.

Movie digital IS works only for video. Not too many video shooters on a photo forum. I tried digital IS a few times and I estimate it to be about 1.25X or so. I briefly tried enhanced but it was a cheap gimmick—too zoomed in. I decided digital IS was unnecessary as I have IBIS in-camera and IS on most lenses and normally use a tripod, slider or gimbal. I thought the digital IS in Final Cut Pro worked at least as good as Canon so I never enabled it in the Canon menu again.

Thank you! 1.25x sounds not too bad if using the 15-35mm (at 15mm) or 16mm.

I'd venture to guess that Enhanced is probably another .25 or so, and probably between 1.5x-1.7x. Is that a fair estimate, or do you think it's closer to 2x?
