I was surprised at how well my M6II nailed eye focus when doing portraits with a Sigma 56mm.

Oh yes, at close range it works very well. OTOH something like the R7 can do it from much further away, and is much more controllable and discriminating.

It seems to have something to do with the size of the eye or face in the viewfinder ?

Switches to face focus when the eyes or face become a certain size ?

100L picks up eyes at 15 feet or less ? Ideal for head shots.

A 200mm would pick them up 30 feet or less ?
