Shoot, I've always thought cheap image stabilisation could be done by making the
CCD and lens system float slightly inside the camera, with a finely tuned mass
and shock/spring system.  I imagined they could find an approximate frequency of
natural hand vibrations and simply tune them out mechanically.  This would make
the camera heavier than an electronic system, though.
