| ->> I've hated every 2x teleconverter I've ever tried. Canon or Nikon. I am curious to see some real user reviews on this new design. |

->> Bad thing for many is that the value of the "old" 300 VR just went down...although thats prob good news for some

| ->> Would love to see some "real life" samples of the 2.0tc. I'm personally not as interested in the new 300 vrII. I have the VRI version and am very happy with it. |

->> I'm still holding off for a 35 f/1.4 AF-s, but losing hope quickly here...
a TC2.0 would be a nice addition for a 70-200 or longer glass for daytime sports. |

| ->> Nic, I think several new 1.4 lenses are imminent (85/35/28). The 35 f2.0 is quite good in my opinion and available used (or even new) for reasonable cost. |

->> Michael,
Agreed. I recently picked up an 85 f/1.4 for stupid cheap and it's near mint and Ive been considering the 35, but I know a newer version will appear right after.
Though as I'm doing multimedia, I may just get a 35 on a 5DII. |
