I thought that using 2x converter would cut the usable light so defeting the f2.8, time to read more

Well the 1.4 converter will give you 280mm at F4 and the 2x converter will give you 400mm at F5.6. It will require brightish light to get the best from it, but with the D3's high ISO it serves me well. You don't have to use a converter but it is another option to consider.
