Interesting stuff. I was surprised that the GX-7 IBIS had clearly
bested the E-M5's IBIS when using 75mm and longer lenses. I wondered if
maybe he hadn't set the camera to handle shutter shock but he says it
was set to 1/8 second delay, same as I use per recommendation from Mr.
Moose. The differences are quite significant and I wonder why.
