Hi, these are a few queries Im almost embarassed to ask as they are pretty basic and would probably have been answered a hundred times over...
* is a teleconverter a bad idea along with a zoom lens... would image clarity / light be poor that it is advisable to use one only on a tele non-zoom lens? I have a Tokina AT-X 50-250 and wish some more on the tele - for birds, which is my present 'fad' at the most. Not many options available here in India. Internet auctions are relatively new and I dont find anything much on that. Also the currency (rupee) is about 50 to 1US$ which makes options shrink further. So for the time being, a TC is what I can think of - but wouldnt wish to do something which is 'obviously to be avoided'. * When I am in a position to add a lens, I should go in for AutoFocus, so that it can be used with my future AF body. And all K mount lenses can be used on my K1000. Is my thinking correct? So, a AF Teleconverter is the choice over a MF... right? thanks. Also, please let me know if such queries and answers are already available elsewhere (like on a FAQ) so that I dont ask for repeats. thanks. -Sridhar
