I don't think they make them any more. IQ was supposed to be OK.

I have seen a couple on the web. But don't suppose they have all the functionality of a Pen?

A forum member had or has one, he may see this topic, and advise.

I've had an ebay saved search for one of these for about a year. One hit in all that time, and that was quite recently (after I'd stopped wanting one). IQ is supposed to be remarkably good, similar to a Pentax 1.7x apparently, but without the ability to AF an MF lens.

Thanks Tim - Apart from my Tammy 500 I don't think I have any Manuals left. So it might be worth a punt if I can find it again
