Bingo. Not just because it's digital - because it's auto-focus. You'll
find this with film AF cameras too. It's nearly impossible to manually
focus sharply with the current SLR focus screens.

Not just that. AF lenses are optimized for quick AF speed, which means
that a small turn of the focus ring will give you more of a change in
the focus distance compared to older (MF) lenses.
