Oh yeah, and IS is good but IS will not stop a fast subject. It will only help you shoot a stationary subject at a slower shutter speed. It may help with panning, but that is debatable.

To stop a fast subject you need a fast lens.

Good luck with your purchase. I hope it works out well for you.

IS is very good for taking still or action photos. IS is not for stopping fast action, IS is for the user and the human response of shaking/moving while taking pictures. IS helps compensate for the shaking/moving.
