Hi all as the title says I went out today and bought 2X teleconverter and fired off a couple of quick shots of the moon, on my nikon D40 and 70-300mm lens so here's a full shot' no crop just a quick levels and shadows+highlight adjustment and resize for the forum.

It doesn't seem to be to bad a teleconverter,a fixed length lens is recommended although the auto focus doesn't like the slower lens to much, you need I think it said a F4 or greater apature for that to work correctly,I expect it would be even sharper if there hadn't been a fine layer of cloud
