X-E1 Review

Hi Matt,

Why didn't you write anything about the autofocus? Everybody knows that is is the weakness of the X series.

What is your experience on this matter? How fast and accurate is the AF?

Don't get me wrong, I honestly want to know, cause I'm considering this camera. Just worried about the autofocus. And no I don't want a DSLR and neither want you to comparing it with a DSLR.

Just to give you an example of my expectation of how the AF of the should perform: I own a Panasonic GF1 and Fuji X100. In low light, the AF of the X100 is unreliable. But the GF1 is fast enough for me and most important accurate.

So for me I think the AF performance of the X-E1 should be at least on par with the old Panasonic GF1. And should be more reliable (speed/accuracy) in low light comparing to the X100. Whats is your opinion on this?
