IS does not make you shoot at faster speeds, it only allows you to handhold longer shots better. A moving subject will still be blurry regardless of that technology.

I didn't say that IS made you shoot at faster speeds. You can just handhold a camera with a slower shutter speed in darker conditions than you can without it. This also allows you to use a lower ISO, so your pics aren't as grainy.

The advantage the Pentax and the Sony have over the "big dogs" is this built-in stabilization. Every lens you have, no matter how cheap, is stabilized. Like I said, you have to pay big bucks to get lenses that are stabilized from the other manufacturers.
