"With the 16-50mm S-series lens, the NX1 completely lived up to its billing. It was fast, accurate, and tracked motion very well. Though it wasn't quite as fast with the 85mm f/1.4 portrait lens, we were still generally impressed with the NX1's abilities. It doesn't match up to the Canon 7D Mark II, and there are situations where the Olympus E-M1, Fuji X-T1, and the Sony A6000 are slightly faster, but with moving subjects and in limited light the NX1 is the best all-around focus system we've used in a mirrorless camera."

That’s positive, but I wish they had elaborated a bit and explained what they were photographing, and whether the times the E-M1, X-T1 and A6000 were stationary subjects. Also, “it doesn’t match up to the 7D Mark II” really needs some explanation. Hopefully before long, someone with the camera will go into detail about their findings, and when warranted, share examples.

The tracking AF seems to be the biggest question mark in people’s minds.
