[QUOTE="Bengt Nyman, post: 476034, member: 13692"] The crop factor certainly lengthens your reach, but remember that when using a lens designed for a larger format you loose the corresponding amount of aperture and light. In other words using the Nikon FX lens 300mm f/4 with or without a TC 14 on a Nikon 1 is not as practical as it might sound. Using a native lens designed for the Nikon 1 sensor format, however, does not introduce this loss of aperture and light, nor does it give you any crop factor advantage. [/QUOTE]
