i have a nikon 80-200 2.8 af-d, and i've been looking for a teleconverter for it. from what i've seemed to find on nikon's site, they don't make one specifically for it, just the 70-200 af-s. there is the tc-200 and 201 though, but i haven't found much about them being used with this lens. i've seen that tamron has some as well, but before i make any purchases i was wondering if anyone had any experience with using a converter on this lens.
ideally a 2x converter would be nice, since that'd let me reach out to ~400mm. the 5.6(i think?) aperture wouldn't be a big deal either since i'd be using it for distant landscapes on a tripod so it'd be stopped down quite a bit anyways.
edit: just after posting this i came across this

i'm assuming that'd work perfectly with this lens sense it's listed as "no limitations"
