Hi,

I just had a look at a picture taken with a Pentax K-50. In numeric values it gives:
AF Point selected 65534/0
AF Points in focus 19

Using the online documentation I can not interpret the "19". In text version it says "Center (vertical)". Does that mean the center/center spot?

In the online documentation, a first value of 65534 (0xfffe hex) for the K-50 AFPointSelected is "Fixed Center".  A value of 19 for AFPointsInFocus indicates to me that ExifTool doesn't properly handle this for the K-50.  I don't have time to look into this right now, but I will when I get a chance.

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).
