I'm not talking about magnifying while keeping autofocus active. You cannot do that with any autofocus method. Obviously autofocus still works in crop mode, but 1.6X crop mode is not a substitute for 6X magnification.
What I'm talking about is when your subject is not moving and you have some time, and you want to magnify 6X or 15X and check that you are perfectly sharp using manual focus. For some reason the magnify button is disabled if you're set to Face-Tracking AF. I don't understand why this needs to be the case - in every other AF method it just suspends AF temporarily why you are magnified.
I can use the lens switch to go to MF then magnify, then put the lens switch back to AF. But it's painful to have to do that every time.
