What are cross type sensors?
A cross-type sensor is an AF sensor with intersecting line sensors. This allows for greater measurement accuracy as line sensors that detect along one direction are overlapped on the same point with line sensors that detect along the “opposite” direction.

Is 9 focus points enough?
Some cameras have only 9 autofocus points while others have well over 1000. Is that something that will make a big difference in how you take photos? As it turns out, the number of autofocus points you need is probably less than you’d think. In reality, you only need one autofocus point for your camera to get focus.
