Thanks, Jim.
It does hunt, but only because you probably have a long focus to find with the
slightest movement of the lens, one moment on the near stamen of a flower, the
next on a distant leaf. I've always found it to be pretty speedy except when
the focus has to move a long way; but once you are in the region it's almost
instant.
