Kiron made a 1.5x, and Soligor sold one, which I suspect is a Kiron. The 
problem is that, as its official name, Match Mate, suggests, it was 
specifically made to match a couple of their zooms and tends to vignette 
on lenses longer than 200 mm. I know from experience that it vignettes 
on the 300/4.5.

It's too late in the morning to do any fooling around like that now, but 
I'll try it on the Sigma 600/8, as I happen to have one too.
