Hi all, I just received a Soligor Tele-converter lens 2x from a seller on Yardsellr.com yesterday. I was really excited for it to come in only to realize it's a screw mount and I own a K100D and sometimes use my dad's K1000. I luckily have screw mount adapter that came with one of my lenses so the tele-converter can be attached to my camera, but it is lacking the ability to attach my k-mount lenses on the converter. Only screw mount lenses can attach to it currently and I don't own any. :( I've been trying to sift threw all the threads here but have only found people talking about the screw mount adapter which I already own. Can anyone point me in the direction of how to get something to attach to to the top of the converter so it actually allows me to use it?

Hi everyone, I'm sure you can tell I'm new to the forum. I have been searching a long time to find someone describe a problem they have had similar to mine and now I found it. I have the K100D and have had similar issues as what Stone G described. This doesn't happen often, I would say 3 times a year at the most. I've had my camera since 2006 and every now and then, no matter what button I push, slide, or dial I turn my shutter will go off on it's own. It never actually takes a picture, nothing never get's written to the memory card. It won't continuously go off like with Stone G, it's only when buttons are pressed, slid, or dials turned, but the shutter will not stop even if the camera is off. If I were to push buttons when it's off or take the lens off, the shutter will go off. It doesn't stop until the batteries are taken out. I normally have to put a different lens on to make it stop. I don't think this happens with just one lens, I think I've had it happen with all of them. I don't have many just 4 but normally use 3, the 4th isn't very good. I haven't taken nearly as many shots as compared to all of you so I'm not so sure that would have caused the issue but I wouldn't rule it out. This happens very randomly and there is no way I could pin point how it happened each time. I could be picking up the camera for the first time for the day, using it off and on all day, or have been shooting constantly for a couple hours. It doesn't matter one bit. I've never been able to get my camera cleaned so I wouldn't be surprised if that's causing it but that's an expense I just can't afford. Any ideas on what I might be able to do? I'm still reading through things here, so I apologize in advance if the answer is somewhere I haven't checked yet.
