I have the following older primes for my D3300.
While researching these and other lenses, I came across references to using teleconverters, reverse mounting, stacking lenses, etc). Made me wonder what other cool things I could be doing with these lenses beyond their intended use. If you have used these or similar lenses in alternate configurations (stacked, with extension tubes, reversal rings, with teleconverters, etc.), I'd love to learn what gear you used and how the photos turned out. Also, I'd appreciate if you could weigh in on the following things I was looking to try out (and hopefully steer me from anything that may be a waste of time).
Thanks for your inputs!
- 28 f/3.5 Nikkor-H
- 50 f/1.8 Nikon Series E
- 105 f/2.5 Nikkor-P (Sonnar-type)
- 200 f/4 Nikkor-Q

- Add a teleconverter to the 200 f/4 for extra reach. (If so, which TC model?)
- Use an extension tube with the 200 f/4 and the 105 f/2.5 for better close-ups. (Which model of extension tube?)
- Use the 28 f/3.5 mounted in reverse for higher magnification. (Which model of reversing ring?)
- Stack two or three of these lenses for extreme close-ups or telephoto? (What configurations? What hardware required?)
