<p>I had a similar problem. Try cleaning the sensor in the left side of the viewfinder with a cloth. Perhaps it works.</p>

 

<p>Thank you very much for your quick, skilled and extensive answers.<br /> Seems clear that at 400mm the best choice is the 80-400 AF-S. <br /> My main goal is to photograph birds, especially birds in flight, as well as some macro (flowers and insects). I have a nikon 500mm f4 AFSII and seek a more light lens that allows me to shoot without tripod. My camera is a D300s. The answer seems to be the new 80-400m AF-S<br /><br /> Abusing your kindness would like to raise another issue. What would be the best combo exclusively for birds in flight, in the sense of fast acquisition focus and subject tracking? ¿Nikon D300s + Nikkor 300mm f2.8 VR or Nikon D4 + Nikkor 500mm afs-II?<br /> Thank you very much again</p>

<p>I'd like to know how the new zoom behaves front the 200mm f2G VR + TCs, especially with the TC20E-III at differents f-stops.<br>

At the same price (200mm used but in very good condition) which of both would be the best option?<br>

<br />Thank you very much</p>

Many thanks for your answers.

 

Sorry for my insistence but I'm doubting yet if the 300/4 with TC14E is best or not in focus speed an IQ than 300/2.8 VR with TC20E.

 

Best regards

I have the AFS 300 f/4 and the nikon TC 14E. The speed and the IQ are OK for me. I'm doubting if upgrade to AFS

VR 300 f2.8 for more reach and same or best focus speed and IQ with the TC 20E.

 

I 'd agree some advice

Thank you
