Sometimes when you aren't looking, you come across an "offer you couldn't refuse." I just picked up one of these to replace my very-much-missed 500 f4 G VR. I have read the Brad Hill report and others, so...I know what I am getting. What I'd love to know is your practical experiences (not conjecture or hearsay) with:
1. The USB dock specific to this lens.
2. Results with the tc-2001 converter (or any other converter other than the tc-1401 which will be included with the lens...I can test that myself).
I'll add that I will use the lens for a time before I decide whether it even needs adjustment, but some of the other features and customizations are intriguing. I shoot nature/wildlife so...that's my application...like most of us here I suppose.
I'll also just say that I am not inclined to categorically dismiss tc usage, as I have had some fantastic experiences with them (and...some not so fantastic ones of course).
Thanks all!
