I have done sports (soccer for example) and birding with my K-3II. The AF is is just fine (Spot AF, Spot Metering, No AF lock, Continuous mode). I get keepers almost one after another if I am tracking my subject. The K-1 is most likely as good or better, being the newer model. I know my AF can handle any common sport, because I know how to use my camera.

I use center point AF (spot) with AF continuous when shooting with the K-3II, and I do not have a problem with effective focus for bird in flight subjects. These settings require the shooter to perform effectively enough to track the subject in order to obtain proper detail in the image the camera produces. I do not have a K-1, but I would doubt very much that the AF would be degressed (less efficient) than the K-3II model. Using other than Spot (center point) AF for moving objects is something I do not prefer. To have effective testing, it would almost be a necessity, accompanied by a shooter that knows how to make use of the camera body with positive performance. It seems almost ridiculous that a review would label an advancement of a K-3II (the K-1) with a poor rating in anything.
