Nikon AF-S 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6 G ED VR

Pros: Versatility, Weight Stabilizer, 400mm Quality

Cons: Focus breathing, Price

Opinion: Using this lens for about six months and I'm very satisfied. I was undecided whether to take the new 300 f4 with Fresnel lens or the zoom, after a few months I can say that I made the right choice. Its strength lies in versatility, in a photographic safari outputs ports always shooting at home, as if you have to shoot a robin, a stork or an elephant, you always find the right focus. Given the opportunity the affiancherei at a fixed 500 / 600mm, but it would never give away. I use it mainly freehand without problems, of course on the stand it is a pleasure, especially when stalking where we can have fun with focal lengths, remember in this case to exclude the VR! The defects are inherent in its nature of being a 5x zoom, little light, with a strong focus breathing, the commissioning minimum distance in focus is the real focal length of 243mm. It digests well the multiplier 1,4III, but AF speed is affected, especially if the light conditions are not optimal, so watch out that you can lose shots while the AF search of mect into focus. Compared to zoom less extensive and more bright loses the comparison in terms of sharpness, but still maintains a high quality, even at 400mm, the focal length is used more. Highly recommended

Nikon TC-14E III

Pros: Optical quality

Cons: Price

Opinion: I purchased it to multiply the zoom 80-400, the result is very satisfactory. No known differences in the pictures with the 1.4 and those with smooth zooming, despite not having done tests risolvenza depth. In practice, I leave it almost always mounted on the zoom, which becomes a 115-560, some dim, but with the D750 no problem with Autofocus even to f8. I also use it sul105 micro becomes 147mm and allows me to be more away from the subject. The sore point is the price, spend more than 600 € for a 1.4 seems exaggerated, you buy a good lens with the same budget. For this is a good purchase to think about, and understand if it is really necessary for our needs.
