[QUOTE="stmv, post: 173176, member: 10038"] interesting,, you mentioned several times the perfect match for the D4,, but not the D800,, but not the reason,, is it that the sharpness is not holding up to the 36 MEG sensor compared to the 300 mm F4 and teleconverter? I have the older 80-400 VR,, and love it for my D800,, I find the wight balance to be perfect. I switched out to the KIRK aftermarket collar and the grip is perfect. I have the 300 F4 lens too, and its sharp on the d800,, but I often get great shots with the 80-400,, so much so, that lately I have been carrying it around as my walkaround zoom (keep it in a small backpack until needed),, along with the 24-85 lens. its a great combo: 24-85 and 80-400,,, throw in an ancient 55mm 2.8 Macro (because it tiny, tough,, and sharp sharp sharp). and you are ready for just about anything.
