Great stuff, Geoff. I am looking forward to getting into some good flight photography so I can try Zone. Also, by limiting the AF modes in either system, your “Direct AF Method Selection” method becomes even more powerful.

Huge thanks, much love.

hi Arthur.

Sorry, it was a tad nerdy.
” Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Batmaaan!! ”

i have been in email correspondence with soens.de and they are pulling some improvements into the Mac version – the Windows version runs fine on my Parallels Win10 setup, however I should dearly like it in the Sony software and firmware. I suppose we will have to wait….. 🙁

I have found the Animal AF less than useful on my A7R4, but to be honest, on my A9 I don’t need it, I find the tracking [when i do use it] latches onto a head/eye ‘pattern’ and keeps hold of it. I normally attack BiF with Wide or Zone w/o tracking.

Cheers anyway – keep up the excellent work – you are a mine of information and a bright light in the torrid, horrid Covid19-world we are in at the moment.
Cheers.
Richard.
