Stve, I believe the operation of this lens is similar to that of the FA200/4 ED. To engage the limiter function, place the limiting switch on the lens to "full" and adjust the focus to the extreme to which you would like to bias focusing, i.e., infinity for the "normal" stuff, or max close focus for the macro work, then switch the switch back to "limit."
That should work every time and really cut down on the hunting.

I plan to use it for macro work (duh) and as a "instead of a 135mm" telephoto. (The feel of the lens is wonderful by the way. What a tank! It balances so well on the MZ-S with the Grip) I'm having a little trouble getting used to the range limiter, however. I want to us mostly MF for macro work but AF for "normal distances". I can't quite get the hang of the limiter, and the lens seems to always hunt through the whole focus range, which is huge. Any suggestions from the Cognoscenti?
