Subject: [Leica] IMG: A Lesson That Should Have Been Obvious

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.
