Hello all,
A month or two back, I posted to the list, asking if the Refconverter M could be mounted to the *ist D. I'm happy to report back now, that I have obtained and tested this item on my own *ist D. One of the concerns was that the M series cameras had a smaller viewfinder (or at least the viewfinder and the information contained there-within). As it turns out, the M Refconverter is able to see all information in the viewfinder of the *ist D, which I believe is due to the smaller size.
As a side note, this was a purchase from ebay, which I believe I got a good deal on. Upon arrival, I found that the refconverter had been dropped during it's life, and had a crack in it when viewed from the nonbusiness end of the Refconverter. However, when viewed from the business end, the crack is not visible, and it is a perfectly acceptable user model. I attribute this to the great manufacturing of Pentax.
IL Bill
