I bought a used "D" condition 300mm f/4 lens from Adorama. It's cosmetically flawless but I cannot seem to get a good photo from it. Every pic seems to be coming out a bit blurry. I've had a Kenko Pro 300 1.4 TC on it but even without it on the photos look the same. I've tried stopping it all they way up to f/13, 1/2000 shutter speeds, increasing the sharpness in the camera (D7000), adjusting the fine focus adjustment both up and down through the range and it seems like the photos just aren't even close to sharp. I've hand held, shot with the lens on tripod, etc. Has anybody ever gotten a bad copy of this lens? I'm thinking of seeing if I can return it. I'm really disappointed because I mulled over buying this lens for a long time and my crappy 70-300mm Quantaray takes better photos. Any suggestions?
