Mike:
Whew, I'm delighted to get that simple solution, and relieved that it puzzled you also. I felt like a dunce!
Jack
Mike, I'm delighted that you are enthused about the G1, I JUST got one, and it seems like a real gem. Now I'm puzzled about how to get a single focus and exposure area in the center while still retaining the usual functions of the rear dial. It seems to revert to moving the focus area, and that is most annoying.
Anybody?
Jack
That one got me too and took me a while to figure out. The camera has such an abundance of functions that the controls can be a little quirky at times. Click the menu button, go to the "Custom" set of menus, locate "Direct Area AF" and turn it off. As long as it's on, the focus area is controlled directly by the arrow keys. As soon as you turn it off, the functions (ISO, WB, etc.) come back.
