The K10D supports PZ OK and I'm sure my K20D will, never tried it
though..... I'll have to dig out the old 28-80mm which has PZ
to check. I used to use it quite a bit a few years ago on longer
zooms.

K20D does support PZ, I have the 28-105.

You said it, it's your finest lens. Contemplating giving it up because you prefer a 49mm filter thread is a bit like trading an Aston Martin for a Nissan Qashqai because it's got more cup holders, IMO.

Just how many filters do you use on digital?

It's the very high field curvature that would put me right off, I sold a Tamron 17-35 for the very same reason

I also have three TCs. The Tamron 1.4x, Kenko (Teleplus) 1.5x SHQ and Teleplus 1.7x SHQ all support SDM autofocus, all were bought secondhand as they are no longer produced in Pentax fitting. I believe you can get a new Teleplus 1.5x TC but AFAIK it does not support SDM. The 1.4x and 1.5x are remarkably good IMHO, the 1.7x degrades IQ further but still very usable.

The following were taken using a K20D DA*300/4 and 1.5x Kenko SHQ TC:
