Having all (=all) NX lenses from Samsung and being longtime NX system user (from NX100) I bought recently new NX1 body to continue shooting with the system.

I am very happy with improved AF speed of 16-50 S and 50-150 S or 12-24, however one of my favourities lens 30mm f2 seems to focus worse than on nx300/nx30 and I'd say even than on nx20. In good light there is little if any difference, but inside or in the early evenings, there is definitely much more hunting. And quite often there is no focus lock. nx20 and nx30 would focus slow in that conditions but would get focus lock. NX1 frequently doesn't.

I wonder if you guys have similar observations.

I have the exact same experience to the point that mine is for sale on EBay right now. So frustratingly slow.
