Same here.
Hmm... I'm not sure if I was using the right terms, as my camera is set to german. I changed it now to english and repeat here my settings with the correct terms (but still with my mediocre english ).
I prefer the "MF assist" on. Because it's easy for me to press and hold C3 if I don't need the magnifier. C3 is set to "shot. result preview" as my "Live View Display Effect Settings" are turned off. Or just hit once C3 if I want to close magnification to see the whole frame again. And I can still press "focus settings*" (set on my a7RII when I push the wheel to the right) to get the magnifier frame and position it before I automatically zoom in when turning the focus ring.
*focus settings works like "focus magnifier" if "focus mode" is set to MF. Therefore there is no need to set "focus magnifier" on a separate button. No matter if you work with "MF assist" on or off.
Guy, it looks like we are different about the "MF assist" feature. I think both ways have their fans and it's good we can choose.
