So far, the only negative thing I have to say about the Teleconverter is that when I zoom out to 300mm, I cannot use autofocus. This probably won't be for your rapid shots. I enjoy seeing a larger or closer version of my shot without having to buy a much larger lens for my Nikon.

Better Than expected5
I'm using this 2X teleconverter with a Nikon D-50 and a Tammron 100-400mm
lens. Its been fantastic. I'm hanholding the Camera mainly for Birding Phoptography and could not be more pleased.

Not Compatible With All Lenses1
This teleconverter was given to me as a gift, and I eagerly looked forward to using it. However, when I connected it between my Nikon D300 and my Nikon 70-200 f/2.8 lens, absolutely nothing happened. No auto-focus. So I disconnected it and then reconnected and still no autofocus ability. I then confirmed all settings and it still would not work. So I went to manual mode, and was able to zoom in and out by hand, but when I went to take a picture, the picture was solid black--no picture came through.

So if you are considering this product for a Nikon D300, you may want to pass.
