Well now that's a little bit of an exageration. When the mirror is
blocking your vision it's not the time to be noticing anything you can
react to anyway. Once you click, it's always in anticipation of the next
1/125th of a second, regardless of what you're shooting with. The view
throughout the shot only tells what's happening during the shot, and
there's nothing you can do about it, same as an SLR.
There's much to be said for rangefinders and TLRs (over SLRs), but that
can't really be one of them, can it?
Hi,
For me it is a big plus over slr. Same for rangefinders. I hate the fact
you actually don't see what you photograph when using a slr. In this
1/30th or 1/125th of a second people can blink easily and your shot is
ruined. Also the shutterlag on slr's is higher than on a tlr or a good
rangefinder. Therefore it is not anticipation but knowing what you've
shot or not have shot.
Cheers,
