[QUOTE="J-see, post: 436508, member: 31330"] I recall reading something about slow lenses cheating by giving the cam a different aperture value than the effective one used to get around a programmed problem with focus but I'm not 100% sure it was the Big Tam and related to Nikon cams. I know she works on my D3300 and I even used the 70-300mm with the TC2 attached. It only hunted at the long end which implies nothing gets "shut down". It's possible the one focal point Nikon guarantees is simply because, when testing, it has to perform at f/8 during a specific range of circumstances and all focal points that don't meet that standard will be labeled as "not functioning" to eliminate future complaints of users.
