R5 Markii Micro shakes on cinematic robot arm

[Glambot]

We are using the R5 Markii on a cinematic robot with really bad results; whereas, we previously were usuing the R8 with great results. When filming we have a violent shaking due to the micro vibrations coming from the robotic arm. It appears as though the IBIS is to blame since the R8 does not have IBIS. Is there a way to have IBIS turned off with, Optic IS and Digital IS on? In other words, is there a way to turn off the IBIS if the stabilizer switch on the lens is turned on?

No its NOT possible since the lens IS switch controls BOTH IBIS & lens IS. The higher the megapixels the more apparent camera shake is. Lens IS cannot be used independently of IBIS they work in tandem with each other.

Ugh, that's too bad. The R8 is working great but were hoping to move to 240fps with the R5. Guess we will have to scratch the R5. Thanks for the help!

All of Canon's cameras with IBIS are controlled by the lens' IS switch if the lens has it. Lens' with IS but lack the switch on the lens. The camera menu will display the option to control IS for BOTH the lens and IBIS. The RF 24-240mm F/4-6.3 IS USM lens is a lens that has IS but lacks the IS switch on the lens. It also lacks the AF/MF switch too instead its controlled from the camera menu.
