FWIW - I used a screw-in 'King'collapsible rubber hood - wide angle version
- until I got the real thing - no vignetting and very cheap. I'm using a
62mm version of the same item on a bargain Vivitar 19mm/3.8 I acquired - no
problem and I suspect I'd get away with one standard filter too. They cost
around US$10 or less here and in some ways are more convenient than the
standard 21mm hood - they don'r deform if squashed in the camera bag, for
one.
