Oh, at Photokina, the D600 AF appeared worse than that in the K-5 II (but
still better than that in my K-5), because the D600 had a small but
noticeable delay in starting focusing once you pressed the button. After
that, the D600 focusing was yet snappy and with no further adjustments
(typical of Pentax AF).
Perhaps those trashing the D600 AF base their opinions on pre-production
samples of that camera.

Subject: Re: D600 vs K-5
In a couple occasions I had to compare D600 and K-5 (one was outdoor in late
afternoon of a grey day and the other time was an evening indoors in a
restaurant) the D600 autofocusing was noticeably better than the K-5. The
K-5 was hunting and correcting a lot, while the D600 snapped into perfect
focus with no second thought. I also think it depends on the lens in use,
but all in all I would swap AF systems in a split second.
At Photokina, I had the feeling the K-5 II has improved a lot over the K-5,
but again it depends on the lens. The 17-70mm gained a lot of speed and
effectiveness, while the 50-135mm (aka the sloth) did not improve so much,
and so did (not) the 12-24mm.
