RF's and Leaf shuttered cameras definitely have less vibration. How many
stops slower you can hand hold them is open to individual opinion.
Somewhere between 1 and 2 stops would be a safe rule-of-thumb.
I can often eke out approximately 1 stop slower shutter speed out of my FP
shuttered RF (approx because its shutter speeds don't exactly match the OM's).
I can easily work 1 stop slower shutter speed with my leaf shuttered RF.
Brace well and SQUEEEEZE the shutter release!
Don't expect to make razor sharp wall-filling enlargements.
4x6 or 5x7 is OK. If you want 8x10 or 8x12, or larger, it's risky.
