I was shocked at how good the optical performance is with this teleconverter. Pairs wonderfully with AF-S 300mm F/4D, allowing 600mm of reach with virtually no image degradation - similar optical performance to my TC-14E ii. Manual focus only, but the only way I know of to get 600MM reach with exceptional optical quality on a 300mm F/4 prime. A great value at under $100! The drawbacks: - Lose 2 stops of light, so F/8 maximum aperture on an F/4 lens - Modern cameras and lenses aren't really optimized for manual focus. Plan to spend some time fiddling with live view to get the area you want in focus...and remember that the depth of field at 600mm is pretty shallow. - This is not a tiny, wafer-thin teleconverter. I would strongly recommend tripod use.

Film era optic which works well on today's Nikon digital cameras. I use this on my Nikkor 400mm EDIF f/5.6 and 200mm Micro-IF f/4.0 coupled to a Nikon D610. Great results. With the camera's expandable ASA settings you don't have to worry about the loss in aperture speed when you add the teleconverter to them. As usual you get Nikon's durability and lens sharpness. If you can find one for under $100, buy it . You will not be disappointed.

I paired this with my manual 300 f/2.8. I expected some image degradation, but there was none at all apertures. It’s a fabulous setup with my half frame body, giving me a 900mm f/5.6.
