One thing that was noted was that often, focus throw is oten longer on manual focus lenses, and this can make them easier to focus than an auto focus lens being focused manually.
Many of my AF lenses focus a lot closer than the MF lenses they replaced, so most of the distance scale ends up being squashed up in comparison.
