Re: Let's talk about AF for a while...

The size of the AF box is a major player for that. I have indeed found that with too large of an AF box or using the whole thing, then with a small subject the camera loves putting the AF on the background. This is improved on the NX1 (and I assume NX500) over previous models, but not entirely a non-issue. I think the NX300 might have been better than models before it as well, since it got some phase detection, but I feel like the software wasn't using the phase detect information much on the NX300.
