[net.rec.photo] Quality and Handling of Nikkor 300 f4.5 ??

addanki (02/07/83)

I'm interested in knowing about the Nikkor 300 f4.5. 

I would like to know if anyone has used one for a while. The particular
  characteristics I'm interested in are :

1.  Is it reasonably easy to hand hold ?
2.  Is it difficult to focus ?  I've heard that the mechanism is very tight.
3.  Can it be used with the TC200 without disastrous results ?

Thanks.
