Now that is just confusing!
It looks like a difference in how canon and nikon display information to the user
For Canon the TC will change the max aperture achivable with the lens - even though the lens is at f2.8 with the tc the light let in is f5.6 level and thus the camera treats it as such even if you raise the ISO - you cannot select f2.8 as an aperture. The only time that is possible is when the teleconverter is not reporting to the camera (it does not notice it being connected) and thus the light properties change.
I think the only way to work it would be to compare your lens at 400mm with the TC with a prime 400mm f2.8 lens also at f2.8 and see if the depth of field for both is the same or different
Certainly your the first Nikon user to explain things as such to me (though not being a nikon follower it might just be that this info has passed me by)
Jerry did the f-stop increase on the display when you put on the TC?
When I used one it didn't.
Now I see the spots, you guys sure are picky. Still great stuf Uplander
With the EF 2x II, AF is possible with any EOS body if the lens has an f/2.8 or faster maximum aperture, and compatible Image Stabilization lenses maintain the IS feature when used with any current EOS camera.
