NX1 question

I'm a long term Nikon and Samsung shooter. I currently use a D300, NX20 and Nikon 1 S1. Each of them have their advantages and disadvantages. I may contemplate replacing them with an NX1 (or more likely NX400evf when it comes). I don't use the D300 much now because the NX20 is much smaller and with better IQ..however I like some of Nikon's advanced shooting modes & thoughtful controls.

My question for those of you who have tested the NX1 is: does it support setting a minimum shutter speed with auto iso setting?  With my D300 I can set to aperture priority with auto iso and set a minimum shutter speed.  This is really useful for shooting action under variable lighting conditions. I can set the aperture wide open, set a minimum shutter speed (to freeze action) and then the camera will adjust iso to maintain exposure once the min speed is limited, or will increase speed once ISO hits its minimum.  Neither the NX20 nor Nikon 1 will do this..but the 7 year old D300 will.  D7100 will also do this..and is one solution..but I like the size of the mirrorless cameras.

The specific application for me is mountain bike photography - high speed - CAF, in the trees with intermittent lighting. Nikon 1 is used because D300 is too big and heavy and NX20 AF is not good enough. NX400EVF will be really exciting - it could replace all 3.

Thanks,

Clive
