anyone with 12mm Voigt lens and 77mm filter?

I want to know if using 77mm filter will cause vignetting with this lens. I tried the filter holder with my 15mm and it does cause a small amount of vignetting.

I have tried with normal non-slim type not obvious to me there is a problem. However I only take negatives and has also not use the lens very much.

the 12mm in itself is known to vignette. This is not as apparent in the 15mm but it is there too. Using a CPL will probably make it more obvious.

I dont mind the vignetting as all lenses this wide tend to vignette anyway, I just dont want the filter to show on the corners , it will show up as solid block while natural vignette is softer and gradual.
