Jez,
Which lens did you have this on? The 28-90 or the 19-35?
I've used the shaved down holder on the 19-35 with a Hitec gradual ND with a
kludged mechanism to hold it onto the lens since I didn't have the 77mm
adapter. It worked OK.
It's the 28-90 lens that I am concerned with. As I stated, vignette is the
watchword with this lens at the wide end. I even get problems using a
Tamron hood for my 17mm on this lens. Eyeballing things through my OM1
seems to have me thinking that the 28-90 will see vignetting before the
19-35. Go figure.
Jay
I had that lens and used a Cokin P circular polarizer. The standard holder
vignetted but I cut off all but one slot and it was ok.
