[QUOTE="SkvLTD, post: 632555, member: 12855"] Oh noooo, the 300 model, not 3x. I did my extensive research and those 3x's were in all just awful. You're better off getting $100 600mm potato lens than a TC. The 2x of their highest grade is no different from Tamron and others aside from our Nikon ones, but Nikons can't screw-drive AF so that ruled them out for me for my SP 90 E72. 1.4 > 2 is like, 200mm > 320. Not much? Kind of. When you want every little bit to get closer? Perfect! I'm personally longing for more telephoto reach, but nor 150-600 on FX nor 70-200+2X on DX would really do the trick, so if my return to wildlife sticks, I forsee having to get me 150-600 AND D500 or I'll just feel like I threw money in the wind. I've tried 70-200+2X on my D5100, and just 600mm is NOT enough at all. Now, 900 would be and with good AF, oh buddy! Also holy moly, people are hanging onto these! I know I got lucky when I managed to get mine, but to be fair I'd say its still worth it in $1-150 range. [/QUOTE]
