What video frame rate will you be typically shooting and what shutter speed for low-light scenarios? I assume the IS doesn\'t really come into play in video applications?
IS often looks a bit weird on video because as you start to pan, (comma), the lens tries to stick with the original framing, (comma), and then gives up and reverts to the stabiliser\'s default position as panning continues. The result is a weirdly non-fluent lurching kind of movement that feels like the cameraman was drunk. Moreover, the sound of the IS motors can usually be heard quite well since they are in solid contact with the microphone itself. Finally, IS does nothing to stop subject motion, so it is hopeless for shooting people, animals, waves, fireworks, sport, windy scenes, and any other kind of moving subject in low light. Two aperture stops of extra light OTOH...
