Hi all.
As you well know, I've been toying with the idea of buying a teleconverter for a few weeks.
Anyway, after seeking lots of advice on here, i finally went for the Kenko Pro 300DG 2x TC from One Stop Digital (£85 delivered - no customs :) ).
I thought I would share with you a few quick test shots I did when i got home from work tonight ... all functions are still retained - although the AF was much slower due to the loss in f.stops. Very pleased - looking forward to getting out and getting some shots with it.
Here they are - image too big to fit in this window ....

Note - all these were taken on a D50 with a Tamron 70-300 DI LD lens.
Cheers.
Anth.
