My sony A77 can do the same. software based IS. physical ibis is probably a battery drain. my iceland trip movie contained some handheld shots, for longer time than these shots are.
the clips are really short.
Yes, it's a very well produced clip, but normally something like this wouldn't be produced handheld. That's impossible.
Software based IS can't compete with mechanical SR, I'm sorry. It's a physical limitation. You put in something that has camera shake, you can't fix that for that frame. I can easily pick out videos that were stabilized in software. It's usually very noticeable, unless you shoot at very short shutter speeds.
The clips are short because of the pacing of the video, I'm sure the shots they picked from are longer and fine, but it wouldn't be as good a video.
Physical IBIS... I _always_ shoot with IBIS on. Few days ago I shot around 68 minutes of video (handheld) and took almost 600 photos. And there was still battery left. I'm not really concerned with battery life. How good was it for the BMPCC? 20 minutes per charge?
