A good photograph can be achieved even if its blurry (think of HCB and the 'Behind the Gare Saint-Lazare' photo), but you mean consistently sharp.what is the slowest handheld shutter speed experienced M9 users should be able to achieve with consistently good results?
1/15?
1/8?
Not really. I find I can handhold my Pentax 645D at about the same shutter speeds as my Mamiya 6 and my Mamiya had a leaf shutter. The trick is paying attention--I might have to focus a little more with the 645D. The single largest influence to camera shake is the operator (and what you think "sharp" is).impressive indeed, but in general does a dslr lose about 1 stop of handheld speed to compensate for the mirror lockup and internal vibration when compared to a rangefinder like the M9?
