Yes, I have the lens, and it is a beauty. The limiter is there so you don't have to use the whole range. Get the lens on the long end and then turn on the limiter, and it won't hunt. Same for the macro (though you be using MF :)) set it low and turn the limiter switch. Now it won't hunt in the higher end.
