Ah, but Geoff, your flies probably move slightly faster than my fly agarics!!

Agreed, if I were photographing insects, the autofocus would more than likely have a role to play, but since I generally photograph only flowers and fungi, where fast working isn't a pre-requisite, manual focussing offers by far the greater flexibility.
