Zoom in on the actual focus point.

On the Canon R5 and certainly other models, it is possible to zoom in on the magnified view at the exact point used to focus. With the large images, you don't have to first look for where the sharpness was measured and achieved. I would also like this for Lightroom Classic. When clicking on zoom, jump directly to the point where the sharpness was measured and NOT always to the same point for each image.

Greetings all,

Updates for Camera Raw are available. The July release (18.4.1) has an update regarding this feature request. If you do not see the update in your Creative Cloud Application, you can refresh it by pressing [Ctrl/Cmd]+[Alt/Opt]+[R]. Note: It may take up to 24 hours for your update to be available in your Creative Cloud app.

Thank you for being so patient.

Note: Camera Raw is the Edit/Develop Engine powering the Lightroom clients. New Edit features must be built in Camera Raw before the Lightroom clients can adopt them. Unburdened by the additional cataloging, syncing, and other workflow functionalities, Camera Raw can move more quickly to get these desired new features into your editing workflow. Our goal is to eventually port these features into the Lightroom clients.

YES, I thought about asking for this feature, but first I searched for it. In the DSLR era, there was no point to this feature, to zoom in on the used focus point, because everybody was focusing and recomposing the shot. But now with MILC cameras, where the focus is probably exactly on the subject with eye tracking or something, it would be nice if LR Classic knew the exact focus point that was used on the image and zoomed in on it.

Or if it's not possible, since LR Classic can already detect subjects on the photo, maybe it would be nice to just use the intelligence of the subject detection and zoom in on the subject of the photo. Of course, detecting the subject takes time, but as with 1:1 previews, it would be a nice option to pre-render that stuff beforehand so when it comes to culling, the zoom would be on point.
