Yep, I just switched the camera to Servo and followed my dog around the room, I could see it continually refocusing itself.

Another question - I thought the "expert" always shot in Manual Focus - is this not the case for even the best photographer when shooting a sporting event or something of that nature?

I've only been in photography for three months and have been shooting full manual for one. It's not that experts shoot in full manual. I consider it training. I even turn the is and the auto focus off when shooting sports. Lovin it.
