A: It is not possible to stack 2 Nikon teleconverters. A better option would be to use this Tamron 150-600: https://bhpho.to/3fRqqTe Plus this 2x: https://bhpho.to/2Rgnllj The result would be manual focus only but it would reach the 1200mm range.

Q: 7. I am looking ahead to purchasing a prime telephoto lens to supplement my 70-200 lens, which is very good but does not reach the pristine quality at the outer ranges at a prime lens are supposed to offer. The 300 2.8 is a logical choice but, frankly, recent reviews have been especially critical, citing the inability to front focus and are troubling. One reviewer even acknowledged that Nikon has been unable to fix the problem, despite repeated attempts. Meanwhile, reviews of the 200 2.0 are universally stellar, with not one complaint to be found. Aside from the primary differences -- 200 vs. 300 and 2.0 to 2.8 -- would a better choice be the 200 supplemented with a 1.4 or 2.0 converter to achieve greater distances. Is there a downside, minor or otherwise, to using extenders. (Would a 1.4 give me 300 meters, and a 2.0 reach 400?) Both lenses are about the same size and weight and fall in the same price range, but performance is paramount with such a pricey piece of glass.

A: If you already have the 70-200mm VRII 2.8, then why are you even considering the 200mm F/2.0, unless you are a very specialized portrait photographer then I would understand that it is not truly the reach nor the speed of the lens that you are after but the creamy background and all that poetic internet talk of ones who basically have not published a single photo taken by their very expensive lenses. The 300mm 2.8 VRII is an outstanding piece of optics, the shape of the barrel is more natural than walking around with the weird looking 200mm lens, which will attract more attention than wanted, it is truly made for action photography as well as portraits especially outdoors, needless to say that if you love landscape and can hire someone to carry it for on your next hike, you will adore the shots you take once you 're back home. Bottom line, the reach of a 300 is far better than the 200, as well as adding an extender is good for still shots that is why I got the 2.0 one for the very rare occasion of using it, but the lens is made to be used solo. Lenses I own: 14-24mm, 24mm 1.4, 58mm1.4, 105mm VR, 70-200mmVRII, 300mmVRII2.8, two nikon bodies D3s & D4, /// Sony A7RII with 55mm 1.8 lens for traveling, so you got the picture that I was in the same dilemma as you then I started to take photos and blocked my self from reading too much for all those experts out there. I hope this was of any help to you.

Q: 8. Is the 200 F/2.0 VRll Sharper than this lens

Q: 9. Does it come withe the original box and all the other stuff ?

A: Refurbished products come with everything the original is intended to come with. However the box may be different.

Q: 10. I own the 300 f/4 PF but sometimes wish I had the extra stop from a 2.8 lens. Is this lens worth the price for the extra stop? I understand it’s built to pro standards but aside from that is it worth it to sell the PF and get this 12-year old lens?

A: Getting the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 300mm f/4E PF ED VR Lens would be worth the cost based on its smaller barrel and electromagnetic diaphragm for faster response when shooting continuous frames, despite the maximum aperture of f/4. The right choice really comes down to what features are most important to you.
