Well, I'm using MF cameras only as I only own MX and MZ-M. My only AF lens is cheap zoom that came with MZ-M (FA 35-80/4-5,6) and only nice thing I can tell about it is the way it communicates with MZ-M giving me all information even in M or Av mode. For the price it performs well, but apart from it I own only SMC-A primes which make different class, but you probably already know this. Among many on this list, as I suppose, I am a proof that working only with MF is possible. You may have some problems while photographing kids as day tend to move quicker than you would expect but for portraits MF ss just fine. I find it much fun.
