Thanks, Moose. The lens surprised me. I haven't used it for a while.
My eye appointment is in October. Perhaps new glasses will help me with
MF lenses.
With some help, I identified the insect as a Syrphid Fly.

I most frequently use my Fujifilm X-T2 with my legacy lenses, but
decided to re familiarize myself with the 18-55mm kit lens. I
finally spotted a few of these bee-like insects enjoying visits to
the Buddleia blooms. While the eyes and markings are interesting, I
could not settle on an identification. I concluded that the lens,
fully extended, gave me reasonable cropped images.

Focus accuracy is better than the last few with MF lenses.
No, I don't know what the insect is, either.
