It would be useful (if possible) to disable IS when using the intervalometer. Or at least get a warning about it. For star trails, it ruins the images, and if you are out on a dark, cold night it is one of those things one tends to forget.

Can't be disabled, but its state can be read at least in LiveView.

I don't have any IS lens right now, can anyone else check whether lens_info.IS gets updated outside LiveView? If yes, it's easy to get a warning, if no, it's impossible.

@a1ex So just "warning" is possible right? Cause it's mechanical thing?

will try now...

in LV changes from 0 when off to 4 when on, in photo mode always 0 so warning will not be possible in photo mode
