You will also have to save up for TC1.4 as that is the best combination.In case you are short of funds now, postpone the purchase and save up. There is nothing more frustrating; in the long term; than having to live with equipment you really do not like but bought it just because you could afford nothing else. Lenses will remain with you for a long time and you may change four or more bodies before a lense change is warranted. So save up and get what is optimum. Consider that Nikon still manufactures and sell the 300m F4 even though it is decade old design. So frill may be added (Nano coating, VR, better body etc) but the basic design rarely changes. Normally all you get is the same old glass in a new and expensive package.</blockquote>
