Yes, I think he has such issues with boost or AF+MF ON, which cancels focuspriority. I have no other idea. I have testet it again myself with my wife in the last hour. Eye AF green and focus on eye and not on the hand. Perhaps his camera is defect?
Fair enough, it makes sense - under condition, that it is rally true.
Alright, You do that and please write down Your results
That is interesting.
Personally, I'd like to see a video in which the H2S is used in DR100, AF-C eye detect, AF-C custom set 2 (ignore obstacles) at default settings, to photograph a subject in good light (ISO no higher than 200) with focus lock acquired before the subject brings their hand into the outer part of the frame and slowly moves the hand into a position where it might confuse focus acquisition.
These are two still images - animal subject detection rather than human face/eye detection but easier to see the effect because of the long dog node.
To see what really happened:These are two still images - animal subject detection rather than human face/eye detection but easier to see the effect because of the long dog node.
The images were taken one after the other in focus priority mode with the camera (and EXIF) confirming eye detection had been acquired.
I had expected that the camera had missed the eye and instead detected the face - in which case focusing on the nose would have made sense - but that isn't the case - in both cases the EXIF reports that the eye has been found and the focus point is reported as being on the eyeTo see what really happened:These are two still images - animal subject detection rather than human face/eye detection but easier to see the effect because of the long dog node.

Either please provide the raws (not jpegs) or you can do it yourself by going to https://www.solentsystems.com/exif3/ then loading each image.
This will show you where the focus was detected, then you can compare it with the focus you see in the image. Also check on the right panel for the AF section with all the AF settings used.

He was using Wide/Tracking. Doesn´t center/auto/front only apply if you´re in Zone AF?
No, not my understanding. It applies to the box to the box with the subject found.
I’m not using anyone’s settings - but that isn’t the point - the camera has found the eye - but at random chooses to focus on the headI had expected that the camera had missed the eye and instead detected the face - in which case focusing on the nose would have made sense - but that isn't the case - in both cases the EXIF reports that the eye has been found and the focus point is reported as being on the eyeTo see what really happened:These are two still images - animal subject detection rather than human face/eye detection but easier to see the effect because of the long dog node.

and
This looks like you are using the settings from Morris0 but they are not the best for this situation. His settings are "tailored" for BIF.
With resting dogs, case 1 would work better, especially with cats and dogs, especially sensitivity zone: center instead of front.
When i had a X-Pro2, X-T2 and X-T3, i did some tests to see if center/auto/front settings applied to single, zone, and wide. At that time i found that they only applied to zone. But then i didn´t use any face/eye detection with those cameras (found it lacking).
