No vignetting up to 17mm, tested on a PZ 16-35 zoom lens
One of my greatest concerns when purchasing this filter was its wide focal lens performance, which I can understand is challenging due to light physics.
After testing on my Sony PZ16-35 lens:
- At 16mm focal length vignetting is not usable and needs to be cropped.
- At 17mm it is very light and hard to notice, very usable to me.
- At 18mm I can't see it at all and looks great.
I uploaded 5 images to this review (pardon the high ISO, as I tested the filter at ND32). Focal lens of each pic: 16mm, 17mm, 18mm, 19mm, 20mm.
I am keeping this filter because I don't think I'll be able to find a filter that accomplishes no vignetting at 16, but I wish companies were more upfront about which exact focal lens their filters support well.
