D70 tele suggestion

Now that I'm convinced not to buy a reflex Nikkor, what SHOULD I be looking
at?

I'd like a 400mm, but only will use it on occasion for nature shots; nothing
professional.

Still, I'm a nut about quality. Is there any after-market glass out there
that will give me reasonable speed with good quality for $500 or less?

Tall order, I know.

A used Nikkor 300mm f/4 AF? Great lens! Very good with the affordable
Kenko Pro converters, too.

Good shooting,

Thanks folks!
