How come that the camera exposue so differently with teleconverters, I thought the camera meters through the lens so it shouldn't matter how many filters you use, extension tubes or teleconverters.
Not a great problem but a bit annoying.

That's about all I do .. when you have done it once the settings you use rarely change.
Not sure if you would even have to do anything with the Pentax 1.7x as its more compatible than the other makes.

I use the free Faststone Image Viewer for the first pass, it allows the vewing and sorting of raw images.To delete a duff one hit delete then enter to copy to a new folder c.c to move to a new folder m.m.Up to four enlarged images can be viewed at the same time. After processing the images can be batched to size,border and © marked

I only ask as if so then the Exif is showing the correct focal length which I have never seen on a Pentax and TC combo before.

Comments, criticism and any advice.
Thanks.

Model = PENTAX K10D
[Camera]
Exposure Time = 1/25"
F Number = F16
Exposure Program = Aperture priority
ISO Speed Ratings = 200
Personally I would say your exposure time and aperture were far too slow which has caused a fair bit of shake.
Pity as it would have been a nice shot otherwise.

That is a plump pigeon. Are you feeding it up for future harvest?
It's all we seem to get in our garden anyway.
