For what I used to spend a lot of my time photographing, auto-focus began doing better than I could manage around 25 years ago, which is why I bought a PZ-1p. And after one too many times where I tripped the shutter just a little bit too early, I want a camera that is ready to take the next shot as soon as possible. I don't fret over much about my development as a photographer - I just want a tool that helps me get the shot I want, especially in fast-changing situations.
