Sony and Olympus. How will in-body image stabilization affect long term reliability and camera longevity.?

Any thoughts or theories.

Seems that the mechanical process of moving your sensor is ripe for failure.

    This is an excellent point. Add this to the fact that lens-based stabilization is still at least a full stop ahead of sensor based stabilization and often more and you make a good argument in favor of lens-based image stabilization.

    It may very well use the same servos that are used for sensor cleaning, but for that function the sensor only shakes on demand from the user and that will not be even 1% as often as it is used for image stabilization.
