What is the point of an image stabilizer on a still camera? If the pictures come out blurry your shutter speed is too slow.

I assumed this was implemented to address a problem inherent with digital cameras. ???
ChadTower:
The issue has usually been that the CCDs weren't efficient enough for fast shutter speeds. Slow shutter speeds would lead to blurry images. That's not nearly as much of an issue, if it even still is an issue, with good consumer level cameras and I'd be really surprised if it was an issue with the DSLRs.
The only digital still I own is a 1999 era Olympus... takes GREAT (1.3mp) pictures, but if anything is moving, it's blurry. I need to replace that but it's painful replacing a working item you paid $700 for...

Well every little bit helps when you are shooting for perfection. My wife used to take lots of action shots and hated using a tripod.

I suppose. As someone who has actually worked on those "features" I heartily recommend using hardware that doesn't need them.

I can't cite any specific articles but from what I have read, I came away with the impression that this was something that other manufacturers would be adding to their DSLR's.
