Yes, I have been amazed at shots I have gotten with the 5-Axis and using the tele end at ¼ sec and once as long as 2 sec. I just took 3 shots at 300mm equivalent at 1.5, 1.3 and 1 secs and all but the first were tack sharp hand held. The A7II 5-Axis can't come close to that performance at 70mm. In single point AF (not continuous) I have shot people moving toward me and away from me, some walking fast and some running and it nails about 98%. When it misses, it is usually due to the IBIS not having stabilized yet and you can see it happening. Since I don't turn on continuos the IBIS does not start until a ½ press of the shutter button and with a 300mm lens it can take is a split second to stabilize. With shorter focal lengths, even down to the 80mm equivalent on the pro lens it is so fast you rarely see it happening. I find the pro lens at the wide end extremely nice for interiors and having the leveling indicators very helpful to help align for geometric distortions in perspective created at wide angles. A pro super wide would be very nice to add.
