Why?  As explained in the <a href=\"https:\/\/store.birdsasart.com\/shop\/item.aspx?itemid=286\">Mark IV User&#8217;s Guide<\/a> I set CFn III: 8 to 1: Left\/right AF point.  In addition, also as per the <a href=\"https:\/\/store.birdsasart.com\/shop\/item.aspx?itemid=286\">MIV UG<\/a>, AF expansion w\/selected pt. is one of the items in my My Menu Settings.

The work that I did in Photoshop was quite similar to the work that I did on the bottom image.
