Yeah, manuals best if you know where the action will always be. But if you're shooting an event with lots of action (protest, wedding, etc) I always have more luck with a nice fast lens and autofocus.
That 85 f/1,2 must be a damn dream.

It is a great lens and my most used one by far. But it is also slow to AF. I still love it though :)
Yes of course if you cannot anticipate the action, AF is the way to go. Also, it depends on distance and aperture: if you are shooting f/7.1 or similar and you're not too close to your subject, the dof may be enough to forgive AF errors...
