Thank you kypfer. That’s a logical approach and the light bulb finally went on! As usual simple is best.

Thank you all for the replies. Extension tubes are a strange new world for me and all I am trying to do is to get one with auto exposure as I am launching into digitizing all of my favourite old film negative with my DSLR and need to bring the focus point much closer to the lens. I cannot find any tubes with KA mounts anywhere but I can find a Tokina 2x KA teleconverter at a reasonable price and from what I can see on DPReview is the glass on these ones can be removed without too much fuss. I shall keep my Pentax teleconverter in one piece.

I am trying to figure out how to remove the glass in a Pentax Rear Converter - A 2x-S without wrecking the lenses. It seems that there are two parts to the glass assembly, nested together and I can unscrew the outer piece from the inner piece but can’t do anything with the inner piece. I have not attempted to dismantle the entire thing as I figure there must be a simple way to do this and of course I expect that there are a lot of small parts that may go flying if I try to dismantle the whole thing. Ultimately I want o be able to put it back together to use as a converter. I am doing this to use it as an extension tube.
Any help would be appreciated!

I purchased the K1 II book and all is fine except that the bookmark function does not work in iBooks. It seems that the author of the file may have a security tag or switch or something preventing this? At least according anything that I have found out in looking into it. Any ideas on how I can get this to work?
Thanks

Wow, that is a great price at 750. I have seen other products get discounted like that out of the blue on Amazon.ca. How long ago was it and what time of year?
