Steadyshot

Ok, so in coming from the Z1 camera to the Z5 I have noticed that the steadyshot is useless on my Z5.

Zoom in about 80% and see all the shake?

Anyone else have this issue?

Already sent it in to Sony and go it back after a month and its the same. Turning the steadyshot on or off odes NOTHING that I can see. Already messed with the soft, hard, normal, and wide settings.

Please help!!!!
