With SLRs, the advantage is theirs with lenses of 90mm and longer. I would never try shooting basketball with an M camera when it's so much easier to do with an SLR. That is, with 90mm and longer lenses. The advantage of being able to focus anywhere on the screen is significant. But the M is certianly faster and more sure with normal and wide lenses.
