Hi Mike ...
Have you read all the crap that one must consider and go through to get
the
5n to work while using auto focus. Suggestions included holding the camera
at an angle, focusing on something else in a similar location, using
faster
lenses because of lighting conditions quickly come to mind. With all the
MF cameras I've used, I point, I focus, I snap the shutter. I've not had
to adapt my shooting style or technique to the camera. The camera
responds
as I desire, when I desire. There's a more seamless integration of
photographer and camera.
You've been getting a worst case scenario suggested to you.
I have an MZ-5 (same AF as the 5n) and for the most part it is fine.
It doesn't work perfectly in every situation, but most of the time, it
works, and works quite well.
Don't worry about the Rube Goldberg stuff until you need to.
