Eye-AF on A7R and A6000
Posted: Tue Dec 02, 2014 5:53 pm
There is a lot of conflicting information out there about the use of Eye-AF on the A7R and other cameras.
Some say it won't work unless face-recognition is selected, others deny this. I know that face recognition works only with the human face; animals don't have the right kind of face for the software to work.
But I am going on a safari soon and want to know if Eye-AF will work with animal eyes; if face-recognition isn't important, as some claim, then it might.
Anybody out there with reale experience that can help me?
I have both the A7R and an A6000 and my Minolta 100-300 zoom will need the use of the LA-EA4 adapter. My other tele option is the Sony 18-200 Zoom, probably best suited to the A6000.
