The following video presents A More Effective Camera Image Stabilization Solution – DUAL IS by Panasonic LUMIX:
“Panasonic LUMIX G Mirrorless Micro Four Thirds (MFT) lenses have long featured optical image stabilization (OIS). But for other 3rd party non OIS lenses, image stabilization was not possible.

Now Panasonic LUMIX introduces Dual IS, supporting both in-camera sensor and lens optical stabilization. Non stabilized MFT lenses were not stabilized on LUMIX cameras, but when combined with a LUMIX G OIS lens and the new in-camera sensor stabilization the combined stabilizing effect is simply amazing.
