You could do that at 1/500th of a second and be there. Hasselblad use has an unusual effect in which people swear you have to use a tripod or that its made for hand held use.. And never the twain show meet. Me I did a whole lot of all combinations including flash with tripod both. The tripod was more about continuity and convenience that solidity when used with a flash. When you shoot a Polaroid and use a tripod obviously you get the same shot when you switch to a roll film back.
