Nikon 300mm f/2.8 + TC-17E II vs Nikon 200-400mm f/4.0 + TC-14E II. Now here is an interesting comparison – if we take the Nikon 300mm f/2.8 and add the TC-17E II, we end up at 510mm. If we take the 200-400mm and add the TC-14E II, we get to 560mm. This time, I tried to match the field of view, because 50mm was too big of a difference.
All 300mm f/2.8 Nikkors are excellent, but the AF-I motors are no longer repaired by Nikon and they are slower than the AF-S motors. Nikon do not guarantee parts for all AF-S lenses either, but odds increase the more recent the lens is. I have the previous version, the 300 mm f/2.8G IF-ED VR.

However, the lack of PF elements doesn’t change the fact that the 400mm f/4.5 is a relatively small, light lens. It slides in nicely with the PF lenses already in Nikon’s lineup. Here’s how it compares to those lenses in weight, length, and front filter thread size: 300mm f/4 PF: 755 grams (1.7 lbs), 148mm long (5.8 inches), 77mm filters.

Nikon 300mm f/4D AF-S vs Nikon 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6G VR Conclusion Although both lenses seem to perform well at 300mm and 420mm focal lengths when stopped down to f/8, as demonstrated in the above charts, I would still recommend the Nikon 300mm f/4D over the 80-400mm lens for two main reasons – autofocus performance/accuracy and better reach. Price on Used Market: ~$300–400 USD. Value at $300 USD: 4. Accessories: Great with PN-11 Extension Tube, usable with TC-200/201, TC-300/301 Teleconverter. Nikon users are blessed with a history of good 300mm lenses, perhaps none so physically attractive as the solid metal construction and silky smooth focusing of Nikon’s smallest, the Nikon AF-S 80-400mm F4.5-5.6G VR. Nikon AF-S 300mm F4 ED (note the 300PF is the new version but did not exist at the time of the review) Nikon 70-200mm F2.8 VRII. Nikon TC14EII (note this has since been replaced with the TC14 EIII) Nikon TC20EIII. The first test scene, the deck: Let’s look at how these lenses fare on the long end with this scene.
