Well then to be more precise... In some cases lack of AF is surely not a problem as long as you have the propor focus screen and the right lens with a decent MF ring. [/quote]
Ok, thanks. Looks like I was sayign more or less what you are, then <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

I don't necessarily agree. I find that MF tends to be slower than AF plus final MF adjustment... <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> And often that last one isn't necessary, as I choose a point to focus on, generally speaking, which takes reframing into account <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />.
