It's effectiveness in video is not quite as strong as in stills but can help. Also, like in stills, turn it off when doing a locked down shot. Gear List

The IS unit can put out a bit of noise and vibration itself, so if you're recording audio keep any microphones or recorders away from the camera, and obviously don't use the built-in mic. 5DmkII | 24-70 f/2.8L II | Pentax 645Z | 55/2.8 SDM | 120/4 Macro | 150/2.8 IF

It has to be "stills + movie" mode in live-view, if it's stills only then yeah, it won't be on all the time. 5DmkII | 24-70 f/2.8L II | Pentax 645Z | 55/2.8 SDM | 120/4 Macro | 150/2.8 IF
