I posted this on dpreview but it is so busy with the K10D that it went to the second page within 30 mins. I'm not complaining though, I love dpreview

Yes, an A lens on the AF 1.7TC will work as an autofocus lens, with a focal length of 1.7 times the original. That is: Full autofocus, all exposure modes possible.
An M lens will become autoexposure and 1.7x focal length, but it's still an M lens, no autoaperture.
