Auto-focus: Offers convenience, especially for frequent material changes or varying thicknesses. It can save time and reduce the risk of human error. However, it might not be as precise as manual focus for extremely fine details or specific applications.

Manual focus: Provides maximum control over the focal point, allowing for more precise adjustments. It's suitable for users who require high levels of precision and are willing to spend more time on setup. However, it can be time-consuming, especially for frequent adjustments.

If you prioritize speed, convenience, and reducing human error, auto-focus might be a better choice.

If you require the highest level of precision and are willing to invest more time in setup, manual focus could be more suitable.
