             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.

            Flexible Spot, 61-point, 15-point flexible spot, and Expanded 15-point flexible
            spot.  (The last three can be called up in the    menu, described in Sections
