Simple,
If you are using a lens that does not feed focal length to the camera, just enter prime length times multiplication factor.
If you are using a lens that does feed focal length to the camera (I'll use my example Sigma APO 70-200 f2.8 EX DG plus 1.4x TC) you are out of luck, because the camera will NOT let you enter a correction for the focal length, This has an impact on performance of shake reduction. Pentax has been advised but no fix yet.
If you are using a zoom, and can enter the focal length, there are really 3 options, depending on why this is on the camera. You will normally have a preferred focal length, usually either maximum or minimum depending on the day. Just set it that way. If you are really shooting all over the place (in terms of focal length) set it to the middle.
