With the A7II at portrait distances it doesn't appear to hunt at all. If you've already had one go at AF focusing subsequent attempts seem to be instantaneous with no perceptible delay or hunt. It's too quick to estimate. To focus from one end of the range to the other takes about 1 second or maybe slightly less. If you move backwards or forwards by about a foot at full head portrait distances refocusing takes perhaps 1/8 sec or less, again it's difficult to estimate.........................Looks reasonably quick in close quarters like that. He's using the A7s. I wonder how much it would hunt at portrait lengths though.
With no hood when the camera is on a flat surface the camera base tilts forwards by about 2 deg, with a hood on the base is level.
Very pleased, looks like a winner

Edited to add: Correction, focus does hunt, but it's almost too fast to notice. You can see it if you focus on a close up flat textured oblique surface.
