I just got one yesterday but I set mine up using DMF mode. I can hit my C1 button and get my focus magnify and focus manuall plus my peaking is on. Than I can hit half press on shutter and it will AF in AFS mode automatically. Now if I hit the AEL button I have Eye AF there but I have no way to get it to AFC unless I turn the front dial. I wish EYE AF automatically was a AFC function only in the firmware so I don't have to do it manually. That would be a perfect firmware upgrade. So Eye AF when engaged it is in AFC mode only. Now we just need Sony to make that firmware upgrade. Unless I'm missing something. Heading out this morning to test it, maybe I'll figure out a different way to do this but rear focus does not look like a option. We needed a extra custom function or AF /MF switch button and the same firmware as the A7rII. Honestly not sure why they did not do that. Being a A7rII owner as well we need across model functionality. I bought this for my 35 mm lens more than a run around toy on its own....Show more →
I'm starting to think the best way is to make the *most customizable* camera conform to the others, rather than the other way around.
I went out with the RX1Rll in DMF mode, after twenty minutes in, I was hitting the video button and thinking WTF's going on here, then it was straight back into AF-C mode.. Now if I could get used to running DMF mode on the A7Rll things may become a little easier......... It just takes one little setting to throw off you're workflow.
