I've done some research into Canon literature about their Image Stabilization for EOS lenses. I am going to give credit for my endeavor to diverhank , who posted a link to the following article, which discusses using IS on a tripod.

For some lenses, it could be best turn off IS when the camera/lens combo is mounted on a trippd. I found more stuff, though.

On page 4 of the above article, you will find a chart that list lenses that can and cannot detect when it is mounted on a tripod. on page 3, it describes the behavior of many [now discontinued] cameras with IS systems, such as when and how much, or how little, the image can shift in the viewfinder.

The above article compares f/2.8 and f/4 lenses.

Here is a link to all of the technical articles in the "Infobank".
