Before you buy the Nikon TCiii 1.4X tele converter, make sure the lens you want to use on the converter will fit to mount with it, because the glass element on in the converter extends out a bit, it will make contact with the rear glass element on some Nikon lenses. That why I bought the Kenko Tele Plus Pro 300 DGX instead, and it costs 1/3 of the Nikon. It works great on my Nikon 300 F4-D AF-S IF.
Thanks for the advice and the information about Kenko!

it most certainly does focus, with the Nikon 105MM 2.8 Macro lens
as well as the Nikon 2.8 70-200 MM Zoom lens as well, I should know, I own them both, and shoot with them on my Nikon D800

Thanks for the info! I have Nikon bodies D4S, D800 and D7000 now. Then one of the bodies (such as D800 as you mentioned) should work. I also have Nikkor 70-200mm VRII, 200-400mm, and newest one 800mm f5.6. These lens work with TC-14E III per Nikon.

The Nikon 200mm f/4 macro is a great lens, it doesn't matter that it is "quite old". :-)
Thanks for the reply!

Thank you very much for the quick reply! I have Nikon TC-20 III and it does not work well for the AF. Very slowly. But as long as I manually move the focus ring close to the exact focus point, it does AF quite well. Thanks again!

I am considering to buy new Nikon TC-14III to go for my macro part of my photography hobby. I have option of either to buy TC-14III to go with my AF-S VR micro Nikkor 105 mm f/2.8G IF-ED or buy AF Micro Nikkor 200 mm f/4D IF-ED. I have the following dilemma: the Nikkor 200mm is quite old version but TC-14III does not do auto focus per Nikon's web page (http://www.nikonusa.com/en_INC/IMG/Assets/Common-Assets/Images/Teleconverter-Compatibility/EN_Comp_chart.html). Someone mentioned that the autofocus works for 105mm (9/16/2014 review at http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1052071-REG/nikon_2219_af_s_teleconverter_tc_14e_iii.html/prm/alsVwDtl). Could any one help to make sure that the autofucs works with the combination of TC-14III and Nikkor 105mm? Thanks for the help in advance!

Rac, I don't agree with that quote.
I agree we need to learn from our mistakes. But we need to take the BEST shot we can, then learn how to make THAT good shot better. You will get better much faster making good shots better, than trying to make bad shots better.
Why in the world would anybody be making bad shots, unless that the best they can do?
Recognizing that is exactly what my current post is about! ;-)

I have all my camera bodies (Nikon D700, Nikon D7000, Nikon D800, and Nikon D4S) covered before I started to use. It is never to be in the same level of easiness if you have the skin on but not that difficult to access the buttons. The best is that you do have good protection of camera body for any possible scratches and you do not need to worry much if you put your camera in the bag with other stuff (not too sharp or hard). When you want to sell your camera body, take off the skin and just do a minor clean, the body seems "brand new". In addition, I also use screen protectors for the cameras. Make sure you cover all screens if you prefer. For example, for Nikon D800, you have two and for Nikon D4S, you have three, not just the big one. You can also read reviews on the skin via the web that sell the skins. Thanks!

I have all kinds of Nikkor lens including Nikkor 24-70, Macro 105mm/f2.8, Macro 60mm/f2.8, wide 14-24mm, 70-200mm VRII, 200-400/f4, and newly expensive 800mm/f5.6. For macro work, 105mm is an excellent lens although 60mm sometimes is a must if space is limited. But 24-70 mm stays on one of my bodies (Nikon D7000, D800, D4S) almost all time. This should be the first lens to consider to buy if buy only one. Just my personal preference. --Thanks!
