It's not lightning fast, like the M6II, or as fast as the M6, but it's more than adequate for most uses, including portraits and landscapes. It copes perfectly well with the kind of shots you posted.

Actually it didn't cope well at all. With a bit of a breeze the AF couldn't keep up with the movement of the flowers and branches — which led to my comment. I agree it should be fine for objects that are truly static and in other respects is a very nice camera.
