I definitely agree with the comments on slowing down.

One way to drive that home is to use the manual settings. I find that my eyesite, even with a diopter isn't quite good enough in many lighting conditions to just "focus" manually - I really need the zoom up to focus correctly. Now, maybe that comes from years of using Nikon zooms and zooming to focus or maybe it is just that I am rusty at manual focusing. I'm going to try to figure that out over the next few weeks by focusing first and then zooming to see if I was accurate :-) Probably will be quite humbling, at least at first. :-) :-) :-)
