Bird's Eye Autofocus

Already impressed by the Sony A1’s human and animal eye autofocus, I headed out to see how its bird-specific eye autofocus would fair in “the wild.” I’m still impressed. While not as consistent as it is with humans, the ease with which I was able to capture these tack-sharp images made me smile as I was shooting. Check out the blue eyes on the Cormorant just below, and the vibrance in the Red Eyed Night Heron. I have a feeling I’ll be shooting more birds now.
