I'd agree with 1 stop, with my M3s. The magnetic shutter releases help
further. My early XA has a lovely feather-light release. <-- OM content!
But nothing, absolutely nothing will beat the new (yes, mammoth
plastic blob) 35/1.4 Canon IS. The IS idea is to me the most significant
photo invention of the past few years.
Still nothing beats a long-base Leica viewfinder in the focusing dept.
I was reading the other day that an M6 can discern focus to the depth
of one human hair at 3 feet. No SLR, specially AF, can do that.
