For the last year I have had an AF capable macro system and I still fail to see where the advantage lies, I still focus manually 95% of the time. My criticism has nought to do with speed etc it's simply that it's rare that the AF finds the spot where I need it to focus, be damned if I'm going to focus - compose - shoot on a tripod and rails.
