[QUOTE="Photowyzard, post: 86822, member: 8344"] Tami Jo, I have not had much opportunity to use the lens. Mostly because I have my 300mm almost WELDED to my camera. For best IQ, forget the TC. It makes it extremely hard to focus and a tripod is an absolute much if you do. Make no mistake, this is a tough lens to use and the quality is nothing like a prime lens. I would say, these are the worst lenses for sharpness quality on the market. However, you can nail down a reasonable shot and make it better with post production software after. I have done that with all the images I have posted. Please make sure you read my commentary thoroughly. If you are up for a challenge, get one real cheap! It is worth about $100 (non Nikon) and you can scrape together a half decent image with it. Not for enlargement, but a decent 4x6. [/QUOTE]
