Single. That's how I've always worked. I never did understand all those 
multiple point focus systems - just confusing. 
How could it possibly know where I want focus to be. The 5D may be set, and the 
60D is set by default, to focus using a 
button on the back, rather than a half press. I'm used to putting the center 
point on the place where I want focus, 
focusing, then composing and shooting. Haven't set the OM-D up for that yet, 
but likely will.

I suppose there could be, probably is, a system where the whole array of focus 
points is used to automagically decide on 
an aperture setting for optimal DOF?

Wait, it's coming to me. I think it was a camera that does that with facial 
recognition.
