One solution I've found is to minimize the focusing 'square' to its smallest size in landscapes with so much going on that the AF can't figure out where it wants to be. And I assume you're holding the button halfway down first? Because if you don't have time to fool with the focus square you can focus on any isolated object at the proper distance, hold the button down and move the camera to frame what you want, then shoot. Last solution: if the AF is at infinity already and that suits you flip the dial to MF and it won't lag anymore. But all this won't be a problem with your M lenses as you'll be focusing them yourself.
