Are you asking about the exposure modes? or the auto focus modes?

Exposure, I always use manual.

Auto focus, I usually use Case 1, center point expanded, and AI Servo.

about the only time I use manual mode on my 1Dx2 is in studio or for long exposure photography needs. AV/TV mode with auto ISO and ability to control shutter in custom functions allows all the guess work to go away. Far better captures, in the moments, when I dont need to chase a needle. 1Dx2 auto modes are extremely accurate and I highly suggest learning them and how to control them
