Ok, that solves the mystery for me.
I must've been shooting in portrait orientation at some point prior to Monday evening and changed the AF mode at the time and forgot that I had done that.
That would explain why I was seeing the multiple AF points in portrait orientation and not in landscape orientation.
I'm still learning how to use this camera and I tend to experiment with settings and then forget to change things back.
Today I was out again doing bird pictures and for most of the time, I was shooting RAW.
Decided to try shooting JPG for the first time with this camera for some of the pictures.
After a while, I saw some kind of hawk land in a tree fairly close to me.
Took a number of pictures.
Was quite happy about finally being able to get some fairly close up pictures of a hawk.
Then as I was reviewing the last of the hawk pictures after it flew away, I noticed the camera was still set to JPG.
So, I screwed up on two things.
Forgot to change back to RAW after taking a couple JPG's and, didn't notice that I hadn't done that when I was reviewing some of the hawk pictures before it flew away.
One of these days everything will come together!
You can shoot RAW + JPEG at the same time, your camera will save both files on your memory card.

Once you have opened the file in Acrobat Reader NOW you can save the file to your computer.
Now to have your camera save both RAW and Jpeg to your memory card, go to page 199

Your camera is still showing the TOP image. To see the bottom image TAP on the words "Image Quality"
In the TOP image it is showing only the Large Jpeg is selected. The RAW is not selected showing the BLUE DASH LINE.
To add the RAW tap on the MIDDLE image of the RAW then tap SET in lower right corner.
Now you should be able to shoot both RAW and Jpeg at the same time.
I do not know what the second choice for Raw does.
Hope This Helps!
