X100 series and handholding slow shutter speeds?

[Tapper123]

I'm interested in the X100F. I know these cameras are not stabilized at all, so I'm wondering how slow you can realistically go handholding at slow shutter speeds?

What is the slowest shutter speed you can reliably get sharp images?

I'm used to Oly's IBIS, so wondering how big the difference will be in that respect.

Realistically? 1/30th with good technique, maybe 1/15 if you are having a really good day. Reliably? 1/60th if nothing it's moving or it's on your technique, BUT you can push your ISO's much more comfortably (3200 it's still pretty good and 6400 it's very very usable) BUT if you don't shoot a lot of ppl yes you will definitely miss the IBIS, it's 3 sometimes 4 stops you are giving up, BUT the X100 series it's a different kind of monster... there's a very unique experience to using them, once you get one, you normally dont wanna let it go.

I've been able to handhold sharp down to a 30th. If I put it into continuous, I could get 1/3rd of captures sharp at a 15th with some luck and a still subject.

The camera is light enough not to make my hands shake and heavy enough to not make my hands share as well.
