Hmm. The manual seems to be missing on the Pentax USA site now. I  
believe I downloaded it in the past and have a copy on my desktop  
system at home, I'll check when I get back there.

The Pentax A 2x-S Rear Converter is basically usable with almost any  
lens. I've used it in conjunction with the A50/2.8 Macro, M85/2,  
FA135/2.8 IF, FA77/1.8, and F100-300/4.5-5.6, all with very good  
results.

The "2x-L" version is optimized for specific long lenses beyond 300mm  
and have protruding front elements which can cause mechanical  
interference problems. The 2x-S works with anything else.

I find it a very well made and excellent performer. It does not  
support auto focus, but all the electronic contacts are supported so  
you have all metering modes and capabilities of the late model bodies  
except for AF.
