I've always been of the mindset to use converters from the same maker as the
lens, tho I have never evaluated brand X convertors on brand Y lenses.
I currently have the rear convertor A-1.4 X-S, X-1.4X-L and A2.0X-L & have
used them extensively when needed without any particular issue. The A2.0X-L
is the least used for me.
They're a great way to extend your 'photo reach' relatively cheaply compared
to the cost of an equivalent lens.

Subject: Teleconverters?
I wouldn't put it to use immediately, but I've got my eye on a Pentax 2X
Teleconverter-A. I know nothing about teleconverters. General advice would
be welcome as well as comments specifically about this one.
I haven't really done any wildlife photography, but it's on my agenda, and
I imagine it could be put to use in that connection.
Thanks,

P.S. I got a Weston Master II exposure meter and manual of eBay. Both
look in good condition. It's been suggested that even it didn't work one
of these, or something like it, would help me understand exposure better.
