It's all consistant with the statement made that both the lens and body use
inertial (gyroscope?) movement detection. If the camera and the lens both
detect movement and try to correct, twice as much correction is applied as
needed. If the camera is on a tripod, there shouldn't be any movement, so
any correction applied is noise.
Also suggests that an earlier speculation about the body being able to
correct for rotation about the lens axis is probably possible but not
likely. It would require another motion detector.
