got a new lens for the wife to use on one of the cameras this morning ,its a tokina 80-400atx (it arrived and its lovely got a super deal ) BUT this is about my existing kit ,i tend to keep a 1.4 tc on the d300s and a 1.7 tc on the d7000 a combo which works for me .

so i awoke at 7.30 am and knowing the new lens was coming got the d7000 ready to bolt it on ,i had taken the 1.7tc and 300mm lens off the d7000 and put it on the d300s .i picked up the d300s to take a shot of a pigeon in the garden and went totally ballistic upon finding i could only get f9.3 from the apeture no matter what i did .i then went into menus and went through everything looking for a problem ,and finally decided on a menu reset ,still no joy .fearing a expensive repair bill after just having bought the new lens i was virtually shedding tears in my 2nd cup of coffee .

YOU CANT USE A CAMERA WITH TWO STACKED T.C'S
