About the focus window
The focus window makes it possible to select an area of the camera’s image to which that focus should be applied. This can be useful
if there is a part of the image where focus is more critical, or if a part of the image should be ignored by the autofocus.
When the focus window is set from the Live View page, any change in the camera position will return the autofocus to the entire
window.
When clicking the Focus Window button in the preset position page, the most recently set focus window from the Live View
page appears.
