  1. Difficulties to reset certain options (no "green button")

3.1 As already mentioned, re-centering the autofocus spot may be difficult. Likewise, it is annoying to reset several other options (see below).

Press OK to get into mode where you can move it, and press delete key. This will recenter it.

It was already mentioned in my review:

Likewise, it is not possible to focus once to a spot by touching the screen: if you choose one of the touch-autofocus options, then touching the screen will always move your focus point for all subsequent photos. To reset it, you either have to hit the center correctly or you have to press OK + DEL + OK (which is three buttons!) (or you need to turn the camera off and back on again).

It is actually 3 buttons to recenter it (if you count the third button for leaving the mode where you can move it to be able to make other adjustments with the command wheels). That alone wouldn't be an issue, but with the inability to focus to a single spot once (without changing the focus spot for all subsequent photos), I find this a bit annoying.
