Dennis,
I am 99% sure all the dials can be pushed in and used as buttons as well. And you can either use the touch screen or the dials to navigate the menus. Relocating the focus point may only be possible via the back screen though. I'm sure they could implement it via the dials, but it seems like it would be tricky to use, unless you only went left to right.

I am really excited about the Hasselblad X1D and am thinking about getting it since I have been interested in getting a medium format camera and do a lot of studio work and would love the flash sync speed up to 1/2000.
I know the final product and features aren’t finalized but I was wondering about the autofocus. I read that touch autofocus would be a feature and that the focus point will be able to be moved; however, I was wondering how the focus point will be moved when looking through the EVF. On my camera I have a multi selector (thumb controller) button. I do see that the X1D has fixed buttons and dials but it seems like it would be awkward to move the focus point when shooting with the EVF.
Does anybody know or have an educated guess about how Hasselblad will/could implement moving the focus point when shooting with the EVF?
Also, does anybody know if Hasselblad will have manual focus aids like focus peaking or magnify? I saw that Hasselblad responded to that question with "Autofocus metering via contrast detection with instant manual focus override" but did not directly answer the question.
Thanks!
