I do not think that long exposures with a TLR are any different than shooting with 35mm. In fact, there are more ways to steady a TLR. As someone pointed out above, you can stretch the neck strap tight and lean against a wall.

Well as with every camera, that would depend on the lense you use as well.

Wide lenses are less demanding while teles require more critical non-shakey-ness 😀

With the 80mm yashinor, I have had some quite decent results with as low as 1/10, with the camera completely strapless. And my hands are not very steady. Quite the opposite tbh

1/8th of a second, and still reasonably sharp!

You get 12 shots in the Yashicamat...I'm not chancing losing an image due to being unusable...I keep it at 1/30 or faster...I have tried it below that and it's rare when it works...

I lost more shots from leaving a lens cap on the taking lens than from motion blur.
