G2 is a different animal -- an automated rangefinder. For the same price, an AX will provide auto-focus.
Assuming that hyperfocal focussing is insufficient for your situation, perhaps your eyesight would benefit from the eye-piece magnifier F-2N (under $50).
Besides an RTS III, I have a Canon D30 and AF does allow for casual, one-handed operation. For deliberate photography like portraiture or scenics, I find AF has no advantage.
Quality MF lenses (like CZ) will retain their value and, without motors and electronic chips, will be easier to service into the future.
