Testing out the Animal AF on the new EOS R5 with the Canon EF 100-400mm F4.5-5.6 II. Honestly speaking, I am no means a wildlife photographer so having an AF system that can help with focusing is always welcomed. I didn't really go in expecting much but as soon as I tried it on the first bird I saw in the zoo, I was blown away. Very little hunting and very few missed shots. The new Dual Pixel AF ii coupled with the Digic X processor is BOMB!
I think what shocked me the most was how it immediately picked up the eyes of the birds/animals despite the eye being very very tiny in the frame. Even when there were distractions in front of the subject, it picked up AND tracked extremely fast. Admittedly, the AF struggled a little when there was a fence in front of the animal but with a tap on the screen, the AF picked it up with ease.
You can set the AF to prioritise animals over people. If there are no animals in frame, the camera will focus on human faces/eyes instead. Fantastic stuff!
(I don't have an external recorded, so I couldn't record straight from the screen :( oh well.)
