Like some other users I have found dust a problem but haven't experienced the jams. A great lens for telephoto macro work when using 500D and tubes. Sharpness increases when stopped down 1/2 stop to 6.7.
Super safari lens when you are confined to a vehicle.
Can't seem to get sharp shots with 1.4x on D60 even when using mirror lock and beanbag/tripod but maybe its just me.
Ideal replacement would be 300f2.8IS with convertors
