The lag is just one (small) factor in this. You must also consider the time
it takes for camera to focus on the subject. If I'm correct (please correct
me!), the RS will only use One Shot focusing in RS mode. (Right?) And if it
works like other Canon cameras, it will not take the picture before it's in
focus. So this is the step that would still slow you down. And afaik, EOS 3
is faster in AF than EOS 1N/RS... so actually RS might not give you any
advance in quick grabbed candid shots. (If you have time to focus on
something beforehand, then you'd see the advantage of the RS mode.) I
actually think EOS-3 might be better in this (specially if you do not use
ECF in this situation, but rather pre-selected AF point or if the situation
permits, all the points in automatic mode.)

EOS 3's viewfinder isn't that far from 100% really. And actually, I've still
framed many images too tight with EOS-3, just because the slidemounts also
seem to crop the image slightly. Not to talk about the prints...

Best regards,
