AF Area Selection Modes

Maximum Lens Aperture: f/3.2 - f/5.6
With all AF points, cross-type AF sensitive to both vertical and
horizontal lines is possible. However, with the lenses below, the
peripheral AF points will detect only vertical or horizontal lines (no
cross-type focusing).
Maximum Lens Aperture: f/1.0 - f/2.8
Besides cross-type focusing (vertical and horizontal lines detected
simultaneously), the center AF point can also perform high-precision,
vertical-line sensitive AF.*
The remaining 18 AF points perform cross-type focusing, as with when
maximum lens aperture is f/3.2 - f/5.6.
* Except with the EF 28-80mm f/2.8-4L USM and EF 50mm f/2.5 Compact Macro.
