The IBIS on the S1H slightly outperforms the group at the moment, and that’s where Canon needs to draw the line to win over users. Sensor-shift incorporates a floating sensor that helps counterbalance tilt, pan, or roll movements within the camera. Panasonic's LUMIX DC-S1H is proven among shooters and features 6K recording and a 5-axis sensor-shift image stabilization. Canon is essentially playing catch up and should be eyeing a level of performance reliability similar to Sony and Panasonic, if not better. IBIS is nothing new and is found on several Fujifilm, Nikon Olympus, Panasonic, Pentax, and Sony camera models. Some Canon cameras already rely on EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization), like with the EOS C300 Mark III, but the move to combine IBIS and IS is a welcomed change that should offer cinematographers enhanced stability, even in low light. The company will be also be combining IBIS with optical IS stabilization found on RF and EF lenses. The Moment of Truth was a short-lived American adaptation of the Colombian game show called Nada más que la verdad ( Nothing But the Truth) where it featured contestants who were willing to tell the truth about their dark secrets (thus destroying their reputation) to win up to half a million dollars. It’s Canon’s first dive into IBIS, so it will be interesting to see out how it stacks up to the competition.

Though the bump in resolution is a headline, the real game changer for the EOS R5 could be the addition of IBIS. To quell rumors about its new EOS R5, Canon has been making the unprecedented move of confirming many features prior to its release, including full-frame 8K 30p 4:2:2 10-bit internal recording, multiple 4K formats including 4K 120p, C-Log, HDR PQ, Dual Pixel Autofocus, dual card slots, and for the very first time, 5-axis in-body image stabilization, more commonly known as IBIS, promising to give the EOS R5 an advantage in ultra-smooth video. Canon is bringing in-body image stabilization to the EOS R5.
