I have noticed pronounced banding of the sky using a C-pol filter on a 24mm
on very bright days. I think that turning the polariser away from the
position of maximum effect may reduce but not completely eliminate the
problem. No polariser and a film with more saturated colour may be a better
solution though.
Cheers,
Duncan.

I finally have a 24mm 2.8 in my possession after about four months of
various problems. I'll be getting to grips with it over the holidays
during the 8 hours of light that we get at this time of year in the UK
(I'm sure it's a lot more than some on the list, but still seems mighty
short to me - do we have anyone north of the Arctic Circle?). I seem to
remember someone saying that polarisers can be problematic with this focal
length as enough sky can be captured that the darkening of the sky is seen
as a band, rather than a uniform effect. Is this right?
