This pic was from a question I posed at Nikon Cafe. I had asked if anyone was using a teleconverter on any of these two lenses. I learned in their answers it is not a good idea and will not even fit on the 18-200mm VR. Several people said they had tried it on the 70-300mm VR but the image quality was not that good.
In my eyes, the clearances are too close to use the teleconverter on the 70-300mm VR. I would not try it as it is very close.
