Nikon say's the D7000 doesn't support AF with this combination. Is this true?.

Neither of N ikons 80-400mm lenses are compatible with TC's, even if they were, your D7000 will not AT with a lens/TC combo exceeding F6.3 maximum aperture.

Mahalo MT Shooter,
I think you meant they won't auto focus as the chart say's it will work with all of them in manual focus. Just thought I had heard someone say it would auto focus on my camera and wanted to make sure. Might as well go for the 1.7II and get more reach.
Mahalo again M.M.

Isn't there a physical issue that prevents the TC even connecting with some tele's?

The chart shows the 80-400 compatible with all three in manual focus only and the limitations on the 1.4X are because the D7000 doesn't support f/8.

I've used the 80-400G and TC14E II and at f11 in bright light it looks pretty good.

In bright light, you may be able to get the 80-400G + 1.4 TC to autofocus on the D7000.
But since the D7000 autofocus doesn't support f/8 it's hit or miss.
The 80-400 D model does NOT support any Nikon Teleconverter.
The 80-500 G model does work with Nikon Teleconverters, but may not autofocus, due to the effective loss of light.
The D7100, and the D600 that I have will try to autofocus with the central focus point in such a situation.

Have been thinking of the 80-400 G VR, but.....
I still have and love my D7000, but recently purchased a D7200 which love even more. Not trying to steel this thread, but how about the D7200 with the 80-400G, will it autofocus?

With TC, It should at least make a good attempt at it.
I believe that it has the same or newer auto focus module as the D7100.
Without a TC, of course it will

Maybe you should let Nikon know they are building such a lens?
