Ken, the D700 is an amazing camera for high ISO shooting - I just put it into Auto ISO 6400 and forget about it. I just wish I had bought it earlier. George, Clayton has it right, the teleconverter multiplier is included in the EXIF data. The 'Fly By 2' is with a Kenko TC 2x, the rest with a Nikon TC 1.7x. The Kenko works well with the 180mm prime, but not with the 70-200 zoom - the image degradation is very visible. I have to get the new Nikon TC 2x, which has an ASPH element and supposed to be pretty good. I just cannot manage to handhold the 200-400 for any appreciable length of time - too heavy.
