the SMC-Pentax F 70-210 f4.0~5.6 with the 1.7 F converter. The combination exceeded the resolution of
the film I was using when stopped down a bit. I assume that they would also exceed the resolution of the *ist-d
sensor. If you have an especially good zoom, and an exceptional converter your combination may do the same.
(Even though you're on the dark side).

I suggest considering a 1.4x. One of those will give better results than a 2x.
Thanks for all the great input, everyone! I want to do some more research, but I'm starting to lean towards a 7-element Kenko. I think when I get my D back from the shop, I might buy the 1.4x and the 2x and test them both with the zoom I plan to use them with. I'm going to ask around but my lens might be too new for anyone to have tested it much.
Thanks, Amita ======= Just a general sort of question to anyone willing to answer.
I have mainly zooms. It's sort of useless exercise in futility to put a teleconverter on a zoom, right? Or not?
