The AF on the 200-400 is not the swiftest out there to begin with. Adding a TC (any TC) exacerbates that.
For things that move, I\'ve gotten great results using the lens naked. The crop-ability if you will, of the D800(e)
makes me think you\'ll prefer the files too. I lived at f4 for my rodeo work and thru f5.6 for BIF, if you\'re comfortable
stopping down to f8-11 you may see merit in TC\'s and this zoom. I sure didn\'t, that\'s what fast primes are for. GL
