It has a better user interface(IMO), sliding MODE
switch instead of the soft button. Has less prolems.
Has a built-in slave.

Are you sure? Do Canon, Minolta & Pentax lenses
perform similarly? I don't seem to have encountered
such problems with my AFS 80-200.

You are testing, I think, a 12 year old optical design.
Anyway do other lenses of other makes have this problem
too? Or is it just your lens? Just wondering, since I
never noticed it with my previous lens.

The TC-14E will NOT provide autofocus with this lens.
The AF Nikkor 300mm f/4.0 ED-IF does not have an
internal motor (coreless or silent wave).

Happy shooting.
