First, the RF 50 F1.8 is not very sof eye detect and servo.

servo on a static target is one thing, servo on a moving target with STM motor is a different thing - it may or may not be fast enough based on how target moves (in his use case)...

That's true. The servo on the 50 with the R is fast enough for most runners.

really as in close up as @ 1-3 meter - not at like 50 meters from ...  I have R5 and RF50/1.8 btw, so I speak from my experience...

plus OP was not using eye detect

The subject line of the post suggests otherwise.

read the post = "AF method: Face Detect"... so no eye AF was used then, just the face and wide open it is no the same
