Hello Pentax colleagues, I would like your advice for the following:
I'm looking for a Kenko Pz-AF 1.5x teleplus SHQ TC, wich I can buy from a former Pentaxian.
However, I'm not sure it will work properly on my K-1 II. If it is for APS-C camera's only I think it will give severe vignetting on a FF camera.
The owner did'nt use it on a FF, therefore he does'nt know.
I hope the knowledge on this forum will help me make the right decision.

Sigma overhere in the Netherlands did an upgrade on the firmware and gave it a new mount.
I only had to send the lens to them; they returned it WITHOUT ANY CHARGE!!!!!
Now it works fine.
This is an excelent service, since I bought this lens used from a Canadian member of this forum.

Help wanted on this issue: Sigma 150-500 f5-6,3 APO DG HSM II on K-1 II
This lens performes well on my K-5 II. I recently bought the K-1 II and here he causes problems:
When the lens is on the body I get no reaction on commands and adjustments by buttons and wheels, the only way to shut down is to loosen the battery or the lens itself, the autofocus doesn't work
and the back panel stays blach most of the time.
I tried every possibility from M to Sv; it didn't work. I tried all kind of settings, FF, aps-c, auto, 1:1; this didn't work either.
Who can help me with this? All tips & tricks are welcome.
Greetings,

Hello everyone,
I want to replace my K-5 II for the K-1 II. However, I have some Sigma's that were not designed for a FF sensor.
These are:
18-200 f3,5-6,3 DC contemporary,
17-50 f2,8 DC EX HSM,
10-20 f4-5,5 DC.
I wonder how these lenses, that perform well on my K-5 II, perform on the K-1 II.
I trust there is enough knowledge on this forum to give me tips and tricks on this issue.
My other Sigma's are DG's, they were designed for use on a FF sensor.
I look forward for the replys,
Greetings from Holland,
Hans van Beusekom.

Hello,
I have a question about the combination DA 1.4x AW AF Rear Converter with K5II and Sigma APO 70-200 F2,8 II EX DG MACR0 HSM.
I want to buy the Pentax converter, but I'm not sure it wil work with my K5II and the Sigma 70-200.
I wonder if there is someone that has experience with this combination and is willing to share his knowledge with me.
Perhaps it is better to look for a Used Sigma 170-500 f5-6,3 APO DG? This lens is only availeble as second hand because it is no longer manufactured.
All information is welcome.
