I, personally, am guilty of this as much as the next person. I muttered under my breath about how useless my flash was until I kicked myself and stopped relying entirely on the technology and went back to older ways (with the advantage of being able to check the results instantly unlike film!). When I was taking photos of sparrows the other day (see my pictures) I was getting annoyed that the focus kept locking onto twigs and leaves and the like and not the birds until again, I remembered that I can actually focus manually (and had been all day with my LX/MX/ME-F).
If we spent more time thinking "This AF is wonderful, it gets it right 95% of the time" rather than "this AF is useless as it cannot focus on an F1 racing car hurtling towards me at 200mph every time" we might all be happier and have lower blood pressure...
Just my $0.02 worth.

Optically, I love the lens. The SDM is so-so. Sorry!
