Sorry, I never understand this kind of experience. I switch to the dark
side once in a while and shoot with my FE2 and a few Nikkors. Never really
notice the difference. Manual focusing for me really boils down to getting
the lens close to in focus and then a lot of minute turning back and
forth. At the money end of that process, it doesn't make a bit of
difference which way you originally had to turn to get it closer. IMHO. YMMV.
