It's an interesting conundrum: What is more important - EVF or IBIS?

Why, oh why, don't they let us eat our cake?

t's an interesting conundrum: What is more important - EVF or IBIS?

I had the original FP when it first came out and took some very nice pictures without either EVF or IBIS. But of these the EVF would be the most important, and something I would add to a FP2. In my case I would need stabilization just for telephoto, but the FP2 works with OIS lenses so I expect this would do fine. With a telephoto lens IBIS is doing next to nothing and OIS is doing all the work. If you had a really good copy of the Lumix 28-200 OIS it could be a good fit with the FP2.

I finally sold the FP, not because of photography issues but because I did not like working with CinemaDNG for video. It can give good results but for me it was a pain to work with. ProRes RAW brings the FP2 into the modern era for video.
