is there a disadvantage to using IS?

Lens based IS is great in a long lens. Gotta be nice to them though, they are delicate. All in all, if you are planning on any tele s
It adds a bit of delay. There are really two types of IS, it is either in the body or the lens. The lens-based IS will help when shooting with a long lens, and an optical viewfinder. Personally, I don't like digital IS, it's just glorified pixel tracking software.

Shooting without support, especially at a low ISO some form of stabilization is a must.

For action shooting, especially under, well, less than ideal conditions, you want some form of IS. Play with a few of both and see what you like.


Agree on the nikon feel, I like canon.
