Hi @MisterSonya7riii

You would have to change the size of the focus area in the settings.

Have a look at these two videos for some focus help.

Hope this helps

Not really, as it is not the different focus modes I am on about. It is the actual focus box that I want to change, when using live view and I pick a focus point on the screen with touch, the focus box goes green, it is that box I want smaller.

Hi again

You can't 'squeeze' the box smaller with your fingers on the camera screen, but you can alter the focus area

size in the fn menu.
