I agree - the Q converter is expensive considering it only allows manual use. I have a cheap (£30) micro 4/3rds converter that works OK

No matter how many lenses I have owned - I have always needed just one more

I have this one. Any K mount lens works with it. It is reasonably well made, the aperture control is OK but not precision engineered. Good enough for my purposes. You gave to use green button metering of course (as you do with the official version). The Pentax adapter has a built in shutter which I believe circumvents the rolling shutter effect, which I have witnessed on fast moving objects. The official version also has advantages for flash sync. speeds, which again doesn't concern me. I do think the official version is stupid money.
