1. The focus selection pad deactivates itself after a few seconds of inactivity. If you touch the shutter release button to activate the autofocus then the slection pad comes to life again and you can change the focus zone

2. The camera has 3 autofocus modes selectable from the LCD Menu (press the Menubutton then select CSM Menu). The third option (on my French model) is the focus mode. If you're on the "C - Closest subject" mode (that was introduced with the F75) then the camera will light up the sensor its using but you can't change it. Set the mode to "S - Selective" and it should react as in point 1.

Thanks Charles - that was it - I hadn't found that part of the menu before either!
