DoF can be very thin and what sort of shutter speeds are you talking about? 
I do not use the EVF much on mine but have found it no worse than M9 (or M8 
or Monochrom) in use...

Yes. I seem to be having some problems with movement when handling this 
camera at close focus; and slow shutter speeds - and even some not so slow 
shutter speeds.

I'm attributing some of it to a fairly complex, however brief, delay with 
the EVF.
Sometimes I've questioned the possible shutter vibration too.

Any other M users care to weigh in on the issues?
