If using a lens with Image stabilization on the E-5 which stabilization is used the camera's Or the lens'?

I did some research on the computer and this is what I found. Because any lens with stabilization that you purchase to use on the E-5 will be a different brand they won't communicate with each other. Therefore, if you have the stabilization on in the camera and the lens they will both operate, neither overriding the other. Based on what I read, they will cancel each out. You should turn one or the other off. They say that in lens stabilization is better for telephoto lenses and in camera stabilization is better for short focal lenses. Hope this helps.

Body! The body of the omd has quite impressive stabilization and will outweigh that of the lenses you put on the body. I can hand-hold for macro photos and video on the omd with lenses that have built in stabilization or that come without. It's quite impressive!

Either one, your choice. Just make sure you turn one of them off. When I use a Panasonic 100-300mm on it I turn the lens IS on and the camera's off.

This is a good question. You can use either. In tests that I've conducted using the Panasonic-100-300mm lens it seems that using the IS on the lens produces better results than using the camera's IS. It also seems that using both simultaneously produces bad results, worse than not using IS at all. Results may vary with other lenses, so it's worth testing each lens.

Depending on the lens IS performance, use either one of the two but not both at one time. So if using the camera's built in IS, disable the lens's and vice versa.

Olympus lenses do not have image stabilization. All the stabilization takes place within the camera body.

Hi Miguel A., yes this Sony E-mount lens SELP18105G has Image Stabilization - Optical SteadyShot. -Ey

Which camera are you using? Which lens are you using? Some of the lenses have switches on the barrel. For those which do not , you should find the "off" in the same place where you select the stabilization mode (i.e. mode 1, mode 2). Look under the Rec Menu. It should be there. Without knowing what items you are attempting to work with, that is about as specific as I can get.

I believe Sony puts its version of image stabilization in its bodies, so it's not needed in the lens.

No, but if you buy the FE lenses by Sony they will have Image Stabilization built into the lens.

I use both Olympus and Panasonic lenses, and Panasonic lenses both with and without OIS, with my GX7 (and E-M5). If there's a difference in the way it handles stabilization with the different lenses, I haven't noticed it.

The two zooms have image stabilization. The 500mm fixed lens does not. It is also not auto focus. This is a great camera in a great package!

The camera itself doesn't have an image stabilizer, yet the 18-55 mm lens does have an image stabilizer

No and not really necessary because of wide angle/low magnification. NEX cameras do not have built in stabilization; it is included in several lenses including the kit lenses.

No, this lens is not shake stabilized. I take extra efforts to steady the camera at the longer focal lengths and slower shutter speeds, just as I did back in the day using traditional film cameras and lenses. Use a tripod, monopod, beanbag, wrapping the strap, leaning against a solid surface are all good techniques. Also the new Photoshop CC has a shake-fix feature.

Image stabilization is a nice plus not a necessity. I use this lens a lot with great results. If the price is right go for it.

For the GX7, lens optical image stabilization will override in body stabilization. The in body stabilization will be used when the lens contains no built in stabilization. Page 203 of the pdf users manual includes a chart detailing this behavior.

The 18-55mm lens does have image stabilization as indicated by the "IS" in the kit description. The 75-300mm lens does not, it is best to use the tripod for this lens.

Hi Pen, The kit lens has an image stabilization feature called Optical SteadyShot. -Anthony

I think you mean "image stabilization"? Yes, it does have an image stabilization option. The lens has a fast aperture of f/1.8 (meaning the lens opens wide to let in a lot of light) which can enable shooting in low light conditions with a decent shutter speed such that image stabilization may not be as critical as on other cameras.

The IS feature the only real difference. That can be useful depending on the type of photography you're doing. Since it's a prime and not a telephoto lens I personally have never missed having the image stabilization. I do a lot of macro work and use fast shutter speeds.

Image stabilization is only found in some Canon Lenses. "IS" is not a Canon Camera feature. All EOS Canon Cameras support lenses that have the "IS" feature.
