I feel like autofocus is so good. Are there times that you use manual focus? When I am looking through the view finder it almost seems impossible to actually manual focus a shot anyway.

Am I doing something wrong here? Just checking. Thank you.

    1. Using a manual lens
    2. Shooting moving pictures, where certain styles include gentle searching of focus as part of the visual language (also focus pulling is an art unto itself, but I’ve no experience with it)

    I’m mostly in the first category. Eventually you get to know a lens well enough you just hold the camera with one hand on the focus ring the whole time and you get there when you get there. Most of my pictures suck though :)
