I have seen this subject come up in a few different threads recently. If you use more than one mode depending on the situation select the one you use most often.
In an effort to be complete I have included a couple of modes I cannot believe anyone would use.
M mode. Constant Preview. Consistently.
Control Wheels: Front for aperture (electronic lenses), Rear for shutter speed. Factory settings were reversed on mine, for some odd reason.
I prefer controlling everything myself… it's one of the great pleasures of using manual lenses, after all… rather than relying on the camera to make random adjustments, like shutter speed or ISO.

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the company's latest classically-styled APS-C mirrorless camera. It gains the 40MP sensor and AF system from the X-H2 but in a body with a more stills-focused slant. We've been putting it through its paces.
