On my web page, there is (among other really wonderful things! ;-)
a listing of virtually all the Nikon lens and converter optical
types, with a SUBJECTIVE evaluation of many. It is under "I babble".
BTW, these are the articles currently under "I babble" on my
web page http://www.fcinet.com/ruether :
