I disagree with saying "always", but I do use autofocus most of the time. I let the camera do the hard work for me, and then fine tune it myself (Nikon M/A lenses are nice for this -- you can manually tweak the focus in any mode, you don't have to change to manual mode).
My eyes are bad enough that I don't always trust my own ability to manually focus, so it's a bit of a blessing as well.
