Canon tried with the Elan 7E eye control system. It's designed to detect what part of the frame your eye is looking at and focus on that spot. I've heard that it doesn't work very well (and hardly at all with eyeglass wearers) but I haven't tried it myself. > Unless, of course, the maker programs rules of composition, >which would be very annoying and limiting.

I'd rather focus manually than fiddle around telling the camera which sensor it should use. Tom Reese
