re: why limited flexibility for setting CDAF points?

In reply to Radu Iordache, 6 months ago

They go exactly as far as your red rectangles and of course in all positions between them.

You cannot set focus point in extreme corners.

I wonder why - what might be the reason[s]? On N7 I can push manual assist area to reside even in the very corners - what make the CDAF focusing points different??

with PDAF points on dSLRs situation is clear as AF sensors there are a lot smaller than the corresponding image sensor's area; similarly the PDAF sensels in HDAF on 5R/N6; but what limits position of CDAF is puzzling as they do work on contrast from image pixels
