I've used a great many cameras with image stabilisation, including optical, mechanical and electronic, and I've never found it necessary to turn the IS off when using it on a tripod before.

Thanks a lot Cliff ! because I formerly had a Coolpix S6 and liked it, I was ver muchinclined to byuing Coolpix S610c But then I read your review and I think I am going to get the Panasonic TZ5. If you get my mail, what do you think ? I use my camera for my blog, but I also like taking nice shots. See my albums on my blog : http://jocelynes.canalblog.com/
Hope to hear from you. Have a beautiful year full of beautiful photos !

"Even with the camera mounted on a solid tripod, the image stabilisation turned on and using the 2-second self timer to fire the shutter, the S610c still shows camera shake"
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Apologies to Nikon! Image Stabilizers, Rule no. 1: when the camera is mounted on a tripod, the IS system must be turned off! It seems, cliff, that the blur was caused by non other factor than the IS, which was "fooled" by the steadiness of the camera.
Having clarified this, your reviews are great. Thanks!
Cheers,
James
