Would buy this converter again!
Got this product for use with a 70-200mm 2.8 G VR lens. It is a great product to extend the shooting range of this lens. Used mostly for scenic and wildlife, even used it for some shots of dragonflies with great results. Lost very little in focus speed and images are still tack on!!

Great Piece of Glass!!
I have used this for landscape photography and also for shooting hummingbirds. Landscape is great, but you lose at least one f stop.

A bit too far....
Used with 70-200, but gone a bit too far and not really great results. Makes it too dark and hard to AF. Should stay with 1.4 or 1.7.

Does what it is supposed to do
I purchased this to double the reach of my Nikkor 70-200 2.8 lens. Produces good photos when used on a tripod. The cost of a 400 2.8 is outrageous, so this is a cheaper alternative.

Super shots
Mated to the 70-200mm f2.8 vr lens. Combo produces stunning shots. Although many reviews suggest the 1.7x instead I would not hesitate to buy this again as my only teleconverter. Degradation, if any, is not noticeable in my shots. Import and USA warranties are the same-no need for the extra cost of the USA version.

Working as aspected
As long as you know what a teleconverter is and how it works, it does exactly what you expected. Only limited choices of lens work on this teleconverter so make sure your lens work on it before you buy it. Its working on my 70-200 2.8 VR perfectly. Good for wildlife photography without carrying big 400mm lens.

Great add-on lens
I have this coupled with a Nikkon 70-200mm f2.8 VR lens. This was the least expensive way for me to get to a 400mm lens for my D80. I used the lens mainly for birding. It was really easy to attach and use and coupled with the lens I had, let me use without much adjustments other than the usual loss of f-stops and caveats about shooting perfectly still. I have used it for shots that are handheld (need plenty of light to get the speed acceptable) but a sturdy tripod is best. No bad points if you understand the f-stop loss.
