[MacDV] Re: The Sony Canon debate

[James Asherman]

Did I forget to mention in my other posts that another of my favorite 
Sony features is Super-Steadyshot?
  That is OPTICAL stabilization. Comes on quite a few Sony cameras.
There seems to be quite a lot of confusion concerning this feature and 
what constitutes digital or optical.
