While I don't have a slim polariser I still want to reply.
I have used a normal polariser many times on my 24mm/2.8, allways added the
lens hood to it and never saw what I would call vignetting. Yes I see
different scales of blue in the skies, but contribute that to the diffrence
in the polarising effect caused by different angles.
