sorry no further context but it's in connection with a digital camera
colour picker is often Farbwähler, but Auswahlwähler sounds awful
I tried Auswähler as well but that seems to refer to people making a selection.
Any better ideas?
TIA

if it has to do with the focus, then my suggestion still is the best up to now (saying it myself). However, if something similar as with Agfa EPhoto CL30 Clik is meant, then it may be translated as Auswahlknopf (577 times in Google) or any of the suggestions by Eli, brute or Klaus Beyer (which, to my surprise, don\'t really get much Google hits); I guess I would choose menuselektor in that case)

Discussion
I am not translating anything to do with the Agfa camera mentioned above, that was only something I found with Google which I thought might help but might have confused matters instead.
Thanks everybody for their input though :-)!
I myself found a handful of web sites in English that mention this term, one of which refers to the Agfa EPhoto CL30 Clik camera:

picker in the camera's menu system.
Unfortunately, this is from the summary only as I couldn't open the pdf file.
