Thanks, Chuck. As you go through the emails, you will find that I did all of that in the calm of my office today. I tried a few shots tonight, and all seems to work as stated.

Your were doomed to "failure" when trying to AF through that maze of wire on a subject so close. But I put "failure" in quotes since I think it has its own charm since I still well see the face of the ump.

Your next mission is to learn the location of the focus mode switch... lower right side of lens as you face the camera.

Autofocus can be a blessing when shooting sports, but not if one is
shooting through the fence.  This friendly umpire chatted with my family
members several times between innings, and I attempted to snap a photo.
But, as I should have expected, the focus is on the fence wire. And I
am not proficient enough at shooting MF with an AF lens to attempt a
changeover on the fly.
