It's rather pleasant to watch the beam shape changing automatically. It does it very quickly as well. Probably the same or faster than manually.

Now if only everyone had this technology in their cars the problem would be solved.
I do not disagree, 'al dm', but at what cost? Assuming that it was possible to upgrade my 2000 V70 to the standard you describe, the cost of doing so would probably exceed the value of the car!
