face detection and eye AF - what camera to choose?

[trak2r]

Greetings,

 

My first post on getdpi.

 

I am looking for the optimum choice for a second hand purchase with these needs:

 

I need to shoot from very freely without looking at screen or in viewfinder - 100% experience and intuition when it comes to framing. And I need to work with at least one speedlight hand held detached from camera. Mainly used 17-40mm before, and the range suites my purpose.

 

I have used Canon so far, but am looking for face detection and eye AF. In the combination 'best working for the least money' pro use semi rough - and without knowing anything at all - I think Sony is the brand to look at? 

 

Really looking forward to read your input on this matter, since I am completely in the wild. 

 

Best, Jesper

 

(If at the same time this camera could be my new over-coat for bringing everywhere it would be a dream come true - but not a must in this search)
