Nice shots!

I tried taking some pictures at a ballroom dancing competition but had quite a struggle with the focus. I used my NX30 with the 18-200 lens.

What lens did you use? And which settings for AF?

I recently acquired an NX500 with a 16-50PZ lens, looking forward to taking pictures at the next competition (this Sunday), so hope you can help!

You can't do that for such pictures with 5.6 zoom lens,

It's worse, on the long end it is f/6.3, it is the 50-200 that is f/5.6.

as I stated even 2.8 pro zoom was not enough. Samsung 45 1.8 is a nice start if you are not that far away.

85 1.4 Samsung lens with AF, most of the time normal focusing as it was too dark for the continuous to work better.
