Bob,
The German Pentax pages include PDF descriptions that list compatibility
between lenses and teleconverters. The FA*300/4.5 page is:
http://www.foto.pentax.de/produkte/pdf/pentax0000024400.pdf
and it does list the 2X-S teleconverter and FA*300/4.5 as being compatible.
The 2X-L is not listed. It extends into the barrel of the lens, and I'm
pretty sure that it will not fit on an FA* 300/4.5. Seems like someone else
posted a message that stated that the FA* 300/4.5 does not work well in
general with teleconverters....

Hi all:
I have the Pentax 2X-S teleconverter, which frankly doesn't produce very
sharp images with my FA*300/4.5, not even locked down into the tripod with
careful technique. (I get better slides with my son's Canon 300/4.0 with a
Canon 2X. Sorry.)
Anyone know whether the 2X-L would be any better?
Also, any thoughts on the 1.4X-L?
Thanks,
Bob Keefer
