I usually use Av mode, but I tend to do outdoor landscape shots. I sit at f8 or f11 to fit into the lens sweet spot and minimise diffraction.

For macro shots I also use Av to decide how much depth of field I want to show.

The only time I've found full manual useful is with a diffused flash and a camera that had a fixed flash exposure.
