To be honest, I think I am too anal in getting  "proper" focus.  It is also 
hard to get even close to "proper" focus with lenses wider than 35 at F4 
even, which I more commonly use. 
I guess a reasonable alternative is to always shoot wide open and auto-iso, 
as you suggest. The 90 and 135 are considerably easier. 

I never thought I would say this... The use of a RF camera has some real 
advantages....

So true

No, from a fuji user, why not try using auto iso and auto shutter - just 
focus roughly at 5.6 and be there :-)
