Having shot both Hasselbad and Ms for nearly 5 decades
I can't agree with this Vick.
No way does the 'blad compete with the M for "speed."
not in focusing
not in film advancing
not in shutter releasing
not in f:stop speed
and
not in steady shots at any given shutter speed : focal length ratio
though a Rolleiflex does compete well in terms of "speed"
