What's the slowest shot you've had with IS?

Apologies if the picture fails, I've not attached one before.

Rebel XT
EF-S 17-55 f/2.8 IS USM
Av mode, f/2.8
ISO 1600
Shutter 1/3
44mm

My littlest daughter was sick last night and sleeping on the sofa next to Mom. I sat down next to her and took this picture hand held at 1/3 second and 44mm.

The "rule of thumb" suggest 1/60 for this shot. I was four stops slower than that. I'm very impressed and so I just had to post this.

I shot this handheld at 1/2 second with the 24-105.

Handheld (see my shadow! yuk) @ 24mm and 0.8sec.
I was just playing around (getting used to my 24-105)..

Impressive shots for the IS, thanks for sharing.

There was a period in my life in the early 90's when I was pretty into 35mm photography. ISO400 slide film was considered pretty fast and IS was far in the future. Returning to SLR cameras from 35mm P&S and then digital P&S I'm just amazed at the capabilities of these newer cameras. Useful ISO 1600 or 3200 plus IS is just amazing.

There was really no low light equivalent in film to what a dSLR can do now.

100% crop.

200mm, 1/13th sec.. where I've found these types of results to be surprisingly easy to reproduce - the 4-stop IS certainly works as advertised on the new 70-200. Very, very impressed.
