Ive had a Kenko 1.4 teleconverter for years that works with every Nikon body and lens that I own including the 28-300 that I got with my D810. I figured it was time to increase the power and thought it was worth spending the extra money for Nikon equipment. Nikon has always boasted compatibility, thats why you stick with a brand. When I bought this there was a dropdown to select your camera which I thought was odd as it is a Nikon, I just figured maybe it was auto focus or something which doesnt bother me. But when I got this teleconverter something was wrong, the lens wasnt going to fit. So I spent some time searching online and found Nikon doesnt care so much about compatibility and even had an excuse that you wouldnt want to increase the power of your zoom. What? It was obviously an excuse, who wouldnt want to convert their 300 to 600 or even 900 in DX mode even its not perfect. What a huge disappointment. Really decreases my desire to upgrade to the new mirrorless cameras...

I put this on my 70-200 f2.8 vrii in the hopes that I could get sharp 400mm photos. Well, it did zoom into 400mm, but it is noticeably less sharp than the original lens without the teleconverter on. I returned this because my 28mm-300mm, at 1.5 crop on a D800 produced pictures that are almost as sharp as the 70-200 f2.8 vrii with this teleconverter on. I might as well just use the 28-300mm when I want to zoom in that much and get almost the same quality photos instead of spending money on more camera equipment.

I pick this up to use with my 70-200 V2 for addtional reach when i needed on the D800. This is a solid built, and almost 2 inches added to the lens length, addtional weight is very little. my 70-200 f2.8 will now become 140-400 f5.6 with this conversion. Pro: Much cheaper and lighter to get to 400mm. Cons: picture sharpness, just a tap slower for focus. Im not sure if i will be using this as much since i can crop my d800 and its is still pretty sharp.
