both separate AF points and separate AF area selection modes.
[ ] Same for both vert/horiz
The same AF area selection mode and manually selected AF point (or zone) are used in
both vertical and horizontal shooting.
[ ] Separate AF pts: Area+pt
Separate AF area selection modes and AF points (or zones) can be set for each camera
orientation ((1) Horizontal, (2) Vertical with the grip up, (3) Vertical with the grip down).
When you manually select the AF area selection mode and AF point (or zone) for each
of the three camera orientations, they will be registered for the respective orientation.
Whenever you change camera orientations during shooting, the camera switches to the
corresponding AF area selection mode and manually selected AF point (or zone). Note

Separate AF pts: Pt only ].

switching to AF points (or zones) in other positions automatically based on camera
orientation.
AF points (or zones) you assign to each of the three camera orientations are retained.
