Running into Target lock-on script problem.

So I've made a lock on to target script but I have a problem with constraining the pitch because of Quaternion.LookRotation.

For some reason Quaternion.LookRotation doesn't seem to rotate from the relative rotation, so as you can see in the video the rotation numbers (pitch) doesn't fall in the constraint. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? Cheers.
