Date Added: 10th July 2008
Question: can this lens be used with any teleconvertor currently on the market?
Bristol Cameras Answer: Hi, you can use the Kenko range of teleconverters (in Nikon fitting) but you will lose autofocus and probably the VR function as well. We sell the Kenko range of teleconverters on our site here: http://www.bristolcameras.co.uk/c-kenko-teleconverters.htm The Pro 300 converters would be your best bet to reduce the amount of sharpness lost.

Nikon 70-300mm f4.5-5.6 G AF-S VR Lens Question

Date Added: 27th April 2008
Question: I currently have a Nikon 70-300mm 1:4-5.6 G. Is it worth upgrading to the AF-S VR version and what are the major differences?
Bristol Cameras Answer: Hi, the main difference between the 2 lenses is the VR (Vibration Reduction) system which can be found on the more expensive AF-S VR lens. This allows you to use slower shutter speeds but avoiding camera shake. The AF-S VR version also has an autofocus motor in the lens so focusing is quicker and quieter and the optics are also improved as it uses 2 ED elements.
