It does work. A 50mm at 1/15, f.95 and close distance the hit/miss odd with be very high, so it impressive to get most of the large face in focus
A good technique if you can see the rangefinder, which will help you keep your eyes on the subject without getting distracted by camera settings, is to make the best mental estimate of the shooting distance, set that on the lens, walk to your shooting position, and when you put camera to eye, step slightly back and forward to see the sharpest image in the rangefinder and snap away.
Users of 35 mm film never had the luxury to shoot bursts when the shutter speed is low, but digital really improves on that.
