I'll do my best to answer.
Focus points are changed via menu or quick button access. ?You see on

That would be me, pick and stay, so no issue there.
That's how I like to work. But I'm left-eyed, so I often find on my
old Pentax AF bodies that I've accidentally nose-pressed the four-way
controller and shifted the focus point somewhere else. But at least
I can see that in the viewfinder when I don't get focus confirmation
at the AF point I'm expecting.
Would this be a problem on the K-x? Or does the four-way controller
not select the AF point by default? That was a problem with the K-7
when it was first released, but it got fixed in a firmware upgrade.
It looks to me as though I'd have one or other problem with the K-x.
to change the focus points, first you hit "OK" then select focus points.
If you want to try out my K-x for a bit, I'd be happy to loan it to you
for a while.
Will you be joining us on Saturday for the Santa Cruz photophest?
