Oh, that is pretty sweet.
Canon and Nikon resisted this because the in lens stabilizer approach for SLR. IMO, they change their minds once they saw sales being lost to M-ILC and Sony in body stabilization. When people are stabilizing old manual focus lenses, they aren't buying stabilized lenses from Nikon and Canon. Since Sony was hungry for market share, they happily sold the bodies with in body stabilization and eventually those people bought new Sony lenses. Canon and Nikon really dropped the ball on that. They could have prevented a good number of people jumping to Sony if they were looking forward.
