thanks - i think

i just do not get that switch

You can assign the button to do one function when its in the af/mf position and a different function when its in the ael position. So you could have it to eye af and back button focus and then switch between the two. An extra button in that area would be handy though

I second the fact that continuous eye focus is a game changer for portraiture.

Here's a couple pics from a wedding I went to in California this weekend.... A7RII and FE 35mm 2.8 (super easy travel combo).

The cool part is, these were literally snapshots.....used LR6 and PS to edit out a couple distractions but otherwise, just normal workflow.

Canon 70-200 2.8 II using AF.

100% cropped.

Canon 24-70 2.8 II.

I am astonished that the camera AF picked out deer in the field! Great images.

Any owners tried some long exposures yet?

Evening sunset stroll on the breakwater.. A7RII,FE16-35

Good looking snapshots!

a7rII/Canon 24-70 2.8II, this combo is starting to be my fav.

Yes, another duck photo! Sony FE90

still doing a lot of testing with different Canon lense on the A7Rii
had the 24-70 F2.8 II on and while it isn't a light setup when you add the MB4 adapter, it really is a great feeling 'pro' type feeling
did a little tracking testing and again like the 70-200, you can get the first few shots in focus and then it just doesn't keep up
that said, the IBIS and the lack of a mirror really give that camera a great steady feeling while shooting which I really, really like

between hockey games where my son was playing, the outside warm-up area had a large number of seagulls and Canadian geese relaxing in the sun

for this picture I used manual focus on the bird's face on camera right

ISO 100, F8, 70mm, 1/250th laying on the grass while shooting

thanks for this as i went back in and tried to get what I want - that is BB AF in one position and Eye AF in the other - and now I have it - thanks

I guess this is where i should post images, right? seems the lounge are more of technical discussion.

First image was with nikkor 135mm f2 ai/s, the second was from the FE55

I really like the series Vinz.

I'll start posting here too
