If it works as well as the A50/2.8 Macro, it will be a delight. BTW: The "Pentax K Auto Extension Tube Set B" arrived yesterday. Brand new, old stock, $75 complete. Only the lens diaphragm is automated, no other connections from the A setting or AF drive to the camera are made. I tested it with the M85/2, FA135/2.8 and A50/2.8 Macro ... All work and meter perfectly on the *istDS in Manual exposure mode, using the lens' aperture ring to set the aperture (with the Custom Setting set to permit such operation) and the AE-Lock button to activate the meter and set the shutter speed.
