I've tried ... it doesn't work for me ..... but for pure insanity, what does work is a 600 with a TC2 III converter. DOF is about a micron, but what the heck ... oh and you need the largets Gitzo tripod you can find to support the whole thing ....
Seriously, i think that Robert has it nailed. Sling a 300 f4 on the V1/V2 and you have a long tele that you can walk 50 km with and not know about and have the reach that you need for the little brown jobs. Probably not competition winners but nevertheless good.
Go on ... you know you want one.
The only disadvantage is that it disrupts the Nikon long glass fitness programme.
I can just about manage 5-10 k with the 400 2.8 or 500 f4 and a d4 in a Glass Limo, but I can't pretend that you don't feel it.
