This could be interesting if IBIS and IS work together or against each other? May make 3rd party lens unworkable on the EOS R future models

Yes, some DSLR's have it, Canon does not. They have patents for it, but that does not mean they have decided to do it.Does the IBIS also available in DSLR ?
I don't know why people think there will be a 'rebel' level FFM coming. The EOS R seems to be pitched 'a bit above' 6D class (I mean, it has a version of the 5Div sensor), so I'd expect the lower spec one to be 'a bit below' 6D class, maybe with a (maybe updated) version of the 6Dii sensor, less video features and build (and maybe a lower level screen). That doesn't mean entry-level in rebel terms.i expect 3 FF EOS R gen 1 models. one lower (FF "Rebel"), one higher (50+MP) than the one already launched.
I am very happy with my 6dii but bought the R anyway. And I do magically get shots (in focus) with the R in very dark environments that I cannot get with the 6dii.That is with the 85 1.4 is. The autofocus performance difference is day by night. Pun intended.That said, if you have a camera you're happy with, I don't think rushing out to buy a mirrorless will magically create shots that couldn't be made before.

Add dual card slots to list and even I will upgrade to R else my current DSLR does a perfect job for my needs.I'll consider the jump to the "R" type series when it has IBIS, a minimum of 8 fps with AF, better buffering times, and a more reasonable button/control layout.
[...]
I would like to see improved AF (particularly in tracking power: speed and accuracy), faster fps (8 to 10 fps would be ideal) and overall snappier operation. It was not a 'slow' camera, but was not as responsive as my DSLRs. Ok, yes, IBIS would be great too. [...]
The future is bright... the future is exciting! From a photographic perspective, I am very thankful to live in the day and age we do.

I have found also that when you use the little red built in illuminator that the focus is almost instant up to 10 meters away. I have not tested it any further.I love my 6DII as well, and I also bought an R I enjoy the R, but the 6D2 is still better at dark shots, because as great as the low light AF is on the R, it can't beat a flash illuminator, which gives instant, perfect focus even when it's pitch black. Some of my favorite cat photos are taken with almost no ambient light (not enough for AF, for sure), using strobes, softboxes and eggcrates to get the effect I want, and I use a hotshoe flash illuminator to take care of the AF.
Of course it may have potential issues, it's a given trade-off.Do we have enough feedback on how those IBIS behave with time? I mean, does a floating sensor whistand 10 years+ of normal use?
It seems that the floating elements can be a weak point on some lenses. Am I right?
I know it's totally old fashionned to think about long term usability, but it's how i am...
Pity the cat.I love my 6DII as well, and I also bought an R I enjoy the R, but the 6D2 is still better at dark shots, because as great as the low light AF is on the R, it can't beat a flash illuminator, which gives instant, perfect focus even when it's pitch black.

A fair guess is that IBIS will be for R-series only. All new features of that kind will probably be on R-series. My quess is that the EOS DSLR line will still evolve on features like autofocus points, DIGIC processors, and sensors, but we will probably not see any big jumps in evolution nor revolution and ground breaking new features on DSLR. They will be cash cows for some (or many) years to come, rock solid well proven technology as they are. So will the EF lenses.Does the IBIS also available in DSLR ?
Wow, now there's an archaic reference.It's about space ...
Does the IBIS also available in DSLR ?
Look like only X and Y stabilization, not rotation and/or tilt?
Of course it may have potential issues, it's a given trade-off.
By the same token, one should not get a mirrorless camera with an OLED viewfinder because the panel will degrade over time.
