IBIS and tripod

[botty1963]

Hi folks, just moved from many years using a Canon DSLR to the X-T4. I am so used to having an IS switch to turn off on the lens when using a tripod, I forgot the other day when using the X-T4 for the first time and noticed that all of my long exposures (6-20 sec) were 'shaken'. However, when I put a post on social media there was some feedback suggesting that it's not necessary to turn off IBIS and examples were provided of photos where it was said that IBIS was left on. What are your thoughts?

hi @botty1963 I had the same issue. Went out, took long exposures shots with 10 stop ND and sure enough when I got home, the pictures where 'shaken'. I have been trying to find a solution to turn the IBIS off altogether whether or not you have an IS lens but can't seem to find the answer. Since the XT-3 is getting the updates, maybe it will come to the XT-4.

Hi, thanks for the response. Yes I was surprised, I had taken them at dusk across small bay with some lights on the shoreline, hoping just to blur the sea. However the lights were all over the place.
