There's been a few threads recently about telephoto lenses, teleconverters and what reach you get. Well, I was bored. This isn't scientific at all and not really fair because one lens is a prime and the other is a zoom, but it's what I've got.
All shots taken with the D300 mounted on a tripod. The shooting distance was 6'-6" (1.98m) from subject to center column of tripod. I chose this distance because at 510mm, the glass filled the frame.
These have only been resized and no editing.....SOOC.... okay, one exception...WB is set at 5650K in Lightroom. I also thought it would be funny to have shots of a shot.

Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8

Nikkor 300mm f/4

So then I figured that I'd slap on the Nikkor TC-17EII 1.7x Teleconverter.
Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8 (effective 340mm focal length)
..................................f/6.3..........................................................................f/8......................................................................f/22.......................
Nikkor 300mm f/4 (effective 510mm focal length)
......................................f/6.7..........................................................................f/8...........................................................................f/22.......................
Is this of any value to you? Probably not, but again, I was bored.
