Vignetting - now you see it, now you don't??

[JimDavis]

Hi All,

I used my Circular Poralizer to take the following 2 photos, seems that the second pic has vignetting. Just wonder why?

I have an adapter tube, with a 62/58 step down ring...

No vignetting, so happy. :lovegrin:

Vignetting occured in this photo :angry:

Can someone help please??

What lens were you using? What is your focal range (zoom lens I presume)?

can I confirm that u r using 58mm CP? If yes then definitely u get vignetting when u r not zooming. CP also thicker than UV filter. if u do filter stacking then u cannot runaway from vignetting

It's the same for 72mm CP filter too! Need to 2X zoom to fl 12mm, otherwise got V........

It's the same for 72mm CP filter too! Need to 1X zoom to fl 12mm, otherwise got V........

that sounds weird cause I dont find any vignetting with my 62mm CP. Actually FZ20 itself has a slight vignetting. :bsmilie:

Thanks a lot for sharing. Now that I recall the second photo is with CP stack on top of star-8 filter.

Don't ask me why, but just for the fun of it to see if there is any effect... :blah:
