Re: What's the purpose of Touch AF? (NX300)

I've just recently bought NX300 and I've found there are several Touch AF options:

I understand how "Off" , "AF Point", "Tracking AF" and "One touch shot" can be used. But there's one more option "Touch AF" when camera instantly autofocuses on touched area. But when I half-press shutter button to shoot camera auto-focuses there once again. What's the point of focusing twice then?

I've found this as well on the nx1, would also like to know.
