As i said before, one of the reasons for buying the Tamron 70-200mm that works, the Sigma no auto with any attachment TC and the other reason for buying the 150-500mm APO Sigma Vs the 400mm version, that should be big enough for me.
Any HSM lens as far as I know will not AF with a TC as yet.

I have spoken to W/E already today, before posting this on the forum, they said that they will refund it no problem.

All I am doing here is offering it to anyone who might be interested.
If no-one is interested by the end of the day then I will send it back.
I would send it back, It is not much good to most users when the Kenko version is much cheaper, also works with my Tamron 70-200mm f2.8

I agree with you on this one, just because others bring out new models like Olympus, the new 620 will be out soon and looks like a larger sensor mod, when they upgraded the 510 to the 520 the price of the older ones dropped like a stone, and the 500's are now rock bottom prices.
The most expensive parts are the lenses/flashes etc,and if they dont fit the new camera

I would not hold your breath for to long, you will go red in the face and then pass out.
I very much doubt if the order will come through at the £299 price, because that is far cheaper than you could buy, buying bulk (25+ units).

If you think you "wasted" your money just send the lens here and I will refund it for you.
But no kisses please or they will start talking about you

The Tamron is quite rare.
I should think it is as well, I know of a AF 1.4x version but not a 1.5x
What's .1 between friends
Even the 1.4x AF Tamron is rare, they are like rocking horse poo.

I'm planning on purchasing the Tamron 70-200 2.8 and I wonder what TC I can use with this lens on my Pentax K200D?
One I have seen on ebay is this one link

Anyone have experience with this lens and TC? It would be used for aviation photography in replacement of my DA 55-300
I nearly missed the TC (Ebay link) you were using I have 2 TC's 1 Kenko 1.5 and a Tamron 1.5 both are AF versions.
The Tamron is quite rare.

Phoned my mate in Aberdeen yesterday asked him to go into Jessops for me same old story they don't stock Pentax, so no bargains there.
Hi Jack,
The clearance is only at 3 stores all the others are run by dead heads, so they wont know.
If you look back in this thread you will see the link for it and read the PDF files, stock lists and phone numbers.
