If your shutter speeds are > 1/(focal length), then IS won\'t be any advantage. Your shutter speed (or flash duration) is faster than any impact you might encounter from minor camera movement.
If you are handholding, shooting with available light, and your shutter speeds are lower than 1/(focal length), then you\'re probably only shooting players standing around. THEN, maybe you could use IS mode 1.
There is one exception to this rule, and that\' when horizontal panning with high-speed subjects like cars, horses, etc., where mode 2 can help.
