Speaking of which, has the list discussed (I don't know where there
might be archives!) teleconverters much? And come to any sort of conclusion?

Before I switched platforms from Olympus OM to Pentax M-series, I had
a Komura 2x teleconverter that had several lenses (6 or 7 elements!)
in it, and all coated... It performed admirably, and was written up as
being one of the best on the market at the time. My use confirmed that.

So, I must ask, given Pentax manufactures 1.4 and 2x teleconverters of
their own, have some folks here done a personal comparison, have any
conclusions been made?

Seems inclusion of one of these in a proper travel kit would be de
rigueur, yet I haven't seen anyone mention one in all the discussion
we've recently had regarding a vacation (or holiday) lens kit...

Peter, when does Brighton get it's influx of holiday revelers? Isn't
it August? I disremember. <g>
