Have to admit that I don't know how it works even for my own camera.
I do know that the the AF marks in the viewfinder do not necessarily
correspond with the actual location of the sensors. Some persnickety
people carefully map them in relationship to the marks in the
viewfinder. One of the advantages of a metal camera or at least a
plastic with an internal metal frame is that the actual focus sensor
locations are stable. It is supposed to be one of the reasons focus
with the Fuji S2 Pro was so dicey with its expansion and contraction
with temperature.
