I guess the writing on the box "P/K M means it can?

Wow nice find! Yep it should work fine. You'll have to use stop down metering though. (as with all Screwmount, manual K and M lenses)

This is the link to the ebay auction. Unfortunately they don't ship to Albania, so I thought another member might benefit from it.

Good luck!

I used to own one of those teleconverters. It worked very well on my K100D, but I eventually sold it because I never used it.

What do they usually run for? I was bidding for one coupled with a m50 1.7 but the auction went over $100 and I didn't really want to spend that much.

Yep, they work. I've got one for my k100d. I paid something around $90 for it (in Sweden). A bit much I guess, but I really wanted to try it out.

I bought it on eBay for about $40 and when I sold it a few months later, the auction went to about $65.
