It is quite bizare but Pentax Belgium still does list the 1.7x adaptor. Don't ask me how or why. Seems they'd still have stock?

Jens, I'm convinced. I've used many a t/c in my day and I recognize this image detail as outstanding. I'm not hooked up with eBay, but am grateful for the alert.
Thanks very much,

This was done with the AF adapter and a M*4/300mm. Please watch it at full size. Some of the things in the background (a cellular phone antenna) is perhaps 10-15 miles away - and I can still count the construction beams.

I have used mine (SMC PENTAX-F 1.7x AF Adapter) on the MZ-S, before I sold it to finance a *ist D. It's brilliant. The AF of the MZ-S is even better/faster than the *ist D. You'll get very sharp images. I use the AF adapter a lot. Especially at long distances I get more accurate focus, using MF. Having owned AF cameras (PZ-1) for 12 years, I regret not having bought this adapter a long time ago. It works fine with all lenses; K, M or A. It's really a pitty they've stoped making it. It's allways in my bag, since I have quite a few MF lenses.

I can't speak to the AF adapter on an MZ-S, but
the
adapter itself is a very fine rear converter. By itself that's reason enough to get one. It
works
well with K, M, and A lenses on autofocus camera bodys.

To the well again.. Could someone please give me a brief comment or
two
on
the desirability of an AF adapter? K, M and A
lenses
on the MZ-S. Haven't connected with any web info.
Thanks,
