[OM] Re: Nikon DX 18-200/3.5-5.6G on film

[Chuck Norcutt]

Why should the vignetting be unexpected?  The image circle of this lens 
is only designed to cover the 23.6 x 15.8 mm of the APS-C size sensor 
and not the 24 x 36 mm of your film body.  Actually, I'm surprised that 
the vignetting isn't worse.  It's simply not designed to do what you're 
trying to do.
