Eye AF

[Alphie1973]

Until yesterday i ha da Nikon d7200, but I just bought de Alpha 7 mark 3 with the kitlens: FE 28-70mm f/3,5-5,6 OSS.

Does this lens supports Eye AF? Does all the FE lenses support this?

You've got one. Not getting tiny green rectangles on eyes? In an AF focus mode?

Just point the camera at someone and see if it works. I'd bet that it does, even though I don't have that camera or lens. Whoa, don't you even get animal-eye AF on that camera?

Just a guess... Don't confuse Eye-Start AF with Eye-AF. The former is only for the LA-En adapters with their own PDAF where that settings tells the adapter to start auto-focus when you bring the camera up to your eye. Trying to enable "Eye-Start AF" on a E-mount lens will result in a "Not valid with this lens" message, which may be part of your confusion.

Eye-AF should be automatic on the A73 with face detect turned on and may depend on focus mode. For example, if you are using the flexible spot mode, and don't have the spot over a person's face, you might not get Eye-AF.
