Yes it will. Depending on the model of the lens, you may have to turn on the stabilisation from the camera menu if there is no physical switch on the lens.

And if their is a physical switch on the lens, you use that switch to turn it on, instead of the camera menu. The camera menu seems to only work with IS MFT lenses that do not have a physical IS switch on them. ;)
