Yes it does have an image stabilizer and a very good one too. Next to the Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L II, this lens is about as good as you would want it to be. Take care.

No, the image stabilization is in my Panasonic Lumix GX7 body, not in the 7-14mm lens. This system works fine and I like that it makes an already expensive lens, less expensive.

No, there is no stabilization built into the lens, it is designed for use with the Olympus line of micro 4/3 cameras having image stabilization built into the camera body. Although, it will mount to any micro 4/3 mount camera, and can be used, but will not have image stabilization unless that feature is built into the camera body as with Olympus PEN and OMD lines of cameras.

No image stabilization or UM--it is a plain jane lens, my wife decided to stick with her 250mm IS lens instead--she loved the camera and kit though

Yes it does. Great lens. Sigma will have OS in the name for optical stabilization. I also bought the sigma 2.8 70-200 with OS. Also a great lens.

Yes, some of the lens elements need to move in order to provide the image stabilization. Once power is applied, the image stabilization takes control of those floating elements to provide the in-lens image stabilization. This is perfectly normal.Hope that helps,Sean

No, but you can get an identical third party one for about $5 by searching amazon and/or eBay. You can't beat this lense for the $. Mine was better than expected at 300mm.

It does have an image stabilizer but only on the 18-35 mm lens. The longer 75-300 lens does not and would require the tripod to get a more stabilized photo.

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.

This camera does have optical image stabilization per Imaging-Resource's review "Maximum aperture starts off at a f/3.2, and falls to f/5.8 by the tele position. Optical image stabilization is included in the design." You may have to turn it on in one of the options in the menu.

No, all lenses designed for Minolta/Sony cameras don't have stabilization of any sort because that takes place in the camera. As such, all lenses are stabilized.

No it does not.If you have bought a self stabilising lens then you have wasted a lot of money.The A77 needs no more than an excellent piece of glass and 'hey presto' the job is done.Leave expensive dedicated lenses to those who sadly have no option.

No, with the dx format(40mm x 1.5) it is equivalent to a 60mm (35mm film format); which is considered a normal focal length lens. The special thing about this is lens is that you can get real close up. It is super sharp and takes great close up portraits as well as allowing you to take close ups of flowers jewelry and the usual stuff you might like to look at up close. No image stabilization :( but a bright f2.8

No it does not...I am an old time photographer and it works great for me...and if I need more stabilization that I get from me....I use my tripod.
