 Flexible Spot – take one focus point and move it anywhere in the
composition
 Expanded Flexible Spot – take a clump of 9 focus points and move
them anywhere in the composition
 Flexible Spot Points – Does it take too long to move that flexible spot
point to where you want? Reduce the number of choices to 15.
(Section 6.13)
 Wide Area AF display – controls whether you can see the individual
focus points when Wide Area AF is selected (Section 6.14).
 AF Range Control – reduces the actual focusing range for faster
focusing in certain situations. (Section 6.10.1)
More detail on most of these settings appears in Section 5.14.
