So what’s the SONY A1 bird eye autofocus really like?

Amazing, except I need to rethink everything!

If you wanted to know how does the SONY eye autofocus work in the real world without any special tweaks. You’ve got the right SONY Alpha 1 review video. This video is all about testing the SONY A1 (af) right out of the box. I took this camera along with the SONY 100-400mm G Master lens straight from the box to shoot some wildlife.

What I found out about the SONY A1 autofocus caught me off guard. Photographing birds in the winter is hard enough but when you’re using the SONY flagship camera to capture common birds, birds of prey or birds in flight you’re in for a surprise.

This is DAY 1 of me using the SONY A1 for bird and wildlife photography.

How do you set eye focus on the SONY A1 ?

To focus on the eyes of an animal or a bird
Set [ Face/Eye Subject] to [Animal] or [Bird] before shooting.
If the detection target is an animal or a bird, eyes can be detected only
when shooting still images. Faces of animals and birds are not detected.
Note: The [Eye AF] function may not function very well in the following situations:
When the person is wearing sunglasses.
When the front hair covers the person’s eyes.
In low-light or back-lit conditions.
When the eyes are closed.
When the subject is in the shade.
When the subject is out of focus.
When the subject is moving too much.

There are also other situations in which it may not be possible to focus on the
eyes.
When the camera cannot focus on human eyes, it will detect and focus on the face instead. The camera cannot focus on eyes when no human faces are detected.
The camera may not detect faces at all or may accidentally detect other objects as faces in some conditions.
