Well apparently the mirror flipped up faster than most.
But not in the same league as a rangefinder design.
I'm not the slightest bit obsessed with the real time issue having gotten
countless decisive moments with a Hasselblad whose real time issues are a
league below what most are used to.
You just learn to lead. Anticipate. Which as the tread brought out you were
doing anyway.
