    The teleconverter seems interesting, the 300mm 2.8 is as far as I can tell a VERY minor update to an already spectacular lens, with a $1000 US price jump tacked on for good measure. I'll keep my original 300 2.8 VR thanks.

    I have one on pre order with Adorama. Looking forward to it. Have a 1.7 which I use on my 200mm f2 works well. Making it a 400 f4 will be nice.
