I think you guys are forgetting the fact that Canon introduced IS ("in-lenses") long before DSLRs even existed and you cant even do "in-body" image stabilization with film cameras. So there was NO debate at the time which was better, "in-lenses" was infinately better at the time, because "in-body" was impossible with film cameras. Cut them a little slack, huh? jco

Again, "rumour" says that this is the approach Nikon is contemplating, i.e., trickling down their VR onto even cheaper lenses.
