When I'm on a job (something that happens less now than it used to) I prefer
to shoot with my PZ-1p and use autofocus. When things are moving fast, the
PZ-1p's AF gets more good pictures than I can get without it. When I'm
shooting just for me, I like to do things at a much more leisurely pace and
manual focus, yes even a TLR, can be fun. For just walking around, I still
like my AF Contax G2 but I find myself using my Super Program a lot, too,
probably because I have a larger array of lenses to choose from.
So, let me recap. Working, I use AF. Fun, I use MF and AF about equally,
maybe a tad more MF.
