Only read the FM if all else fails is my maxim. Gets in the way of exploring and experimenting. Looks very good, esp. for hand held, probably a lot of scope for cropping too. It won't weigh a ton to carry to remote locations and doesn't look too, er, extravagant? By which I mean tempting to the passing tealeaf.

if anything rob its to light .the lack of multi point a/f limits you to static subjects although i think i might be o.k on birds taking off .according to the rule of so far so good it needs a lot of light to work well and i think todays test at extremes is pushing it a bridge to far .i will revert to either the bare 300giving me 810mm or with the 1.4tc giving me 1134mm .time will tell but its a saving of four and a half grand over a big lens

I agree. The naked 300 is OK but the ft1 with a tc just does not work for me. Ed

It's the only one I feel competes with a basic image crop from the D3 sensor. I am not convinced that the D7000 is going to stay with us. Maybe it's because I hadn't used it a lot before, but recently I have noticed the IQ and focus performance differences between it and the D3.

i love my nikon 1.7 tc eric with the 300mm f4 and the d7000 its a stunning combo ,but oddly enough it doesn't work that well with the same lens on the d300 i tend to use the kenko 1.4 dg pro on that combo . its really weird that different nikon cameras give such hugely different i.q ranges between different models ,at this moment in time i prefer the I/Q of the d300 and have lent the d7000 to my lad who has just emigrated from the dark side back to nikon .i think all i need to complete my requirements now is something along the lines of a 70-200 f2.8 until they bring out the d400 or d7200

I still prefer the FX sensor for most of my work, but I do see the value of DX if you need that extra bit of reach.
