[QUOTE="blackstar, post: 792954, member: 47518"] Bill, This is still unclear now without experimenting all the scenarios out. In the Manual page you showed, it doesn't indicate any "double focus areas (rectangles or squares)", but I did see two (partially) separate focus rectangles. My thought: if select "Auto-area AF (people)", there will be one focus point (square) on one eye which is determined by the camera. However, if there is another eye or person appear in the scene, it will give arrows for other selection by the photographer and the focus point will move to the new selection. If select "Wide-area Large (people)" or "Wide-area Large", Since camera does not decide which focus point or area, but does the photographer, it will show multi-focus points (areas) if there are multi-objects (eyes, persons, etc.) in the scene and arrows for focus point selection by the photographer. Too bad I didn't think of this when double-focus areas present in EVF and didn't try the arrows to select a focus area, but puzzled and shocked by double-vision! I hope as more z users start to play the AF game, things like this will clear out soon and we all improve and enjoy more with z. [/QUOTE]
