Not sure if posting in the right spot but desperately need some advice here. Had a D200, 80-400 lens for yonks, working perfectly, till it was stolen 2 mths ago. Now bought a D300S and same lens, but almost all (but not all) photos I take with it turn out with a streaky background. The main object (I photograph birds) can be in focus, but behind and some times in front, the out-of-focus bits are streaky. I have tried with the VR on all three settings, with A or M focus on the lens, the same happens. When I use a different lens, or even a friend's 80-400, the pictures are perfect. In fact, it is the second such lens... first time I sent it back as defective, but now the new lens that has arrived does exactly the same thing. Does any one have any bright ideas as to what might be the problem?
