I know that if there was such a thing it would really cost you bad, coming from Pentax. Or anyone for that matter. > Perry Pellecchia > > I would try an extension tube before a conversion lens.

If AF is a consideration in this, there is only one tube that I know of (and have) which is the Kenko/Soligor UniPlus Pz-AF 25 mm that has all lens contacts including PowerZoom / SDM as well as the AF drive shaft. Kenko/Soligor makes a 15 mm version for other mounts, also longer ones but for Pentax 25 mm is all she wrote. I spent ages finding one, this is also how I came to know and join PDML and ultimately scored one on eBay. This year things look better, my Google search showed that there were at least three sold via PentaxForums alone this year so far, probably because more people are losing their jobs etc. but you really have to keep looking as they sell in practically no time. Right now I keep mine just for that reason even though I use it almost never at all.
