Today I had a willing model so I took the chance and subjected my 35F14GM to a demanding AF test: 5y old on a trampoline.
If, at the beginning of the (A1, 20fps e-shutter) burst, the eye(s) happened to be obscured (hair or facing away) then it would NOT be picked up in ANY of the frames of the whole 2-3s long burst even after it had become totally unobstructed.
If it was in view at the beginning then every single frame of the burst would have the eyes in focus (f1.4).

On my previous similar test with 7M3/35F14ZA combo at 8fps m-shutter (with vastly better light conditions than I had today) I was lucky to get 1 in 5 in focus. Maybe next I will try A1/35F14ZA and 7M3/35F14GM combos.

[QUOTE="Reciprocum, post: 9239, member: 1794"] Today I had a willing model so I took the chance and subjected my 35F14GM to a demanding AF test: 5y old on a trampoline. If, at the beginning of the (A1, 20fps e-shutter) burst, the eye(s) happened to be obscured (hair or facing away) then it would NOT be picked up in ANY of the frames of the whole 2-3s long burst even after it had become totally unobstructed. If it was in view at the beginning then every single frame of the burst would have the eyes in focus (f1.4). On my previous similar test with 7M3/35F14ZA combo at 8fps m-shutter (with vastly better light conditions than I had today) I was lucky to get 1 in 5 in focus. Maybe next I will try A1/35F14ZA and 7M3/35F14GM combos.
