if I just use the lens adapter tube that connects to the camera, will that eliminate vignetting (picture reduction/rounding)?

Absolutely not. I was shocked to see the in adequacy of this "kit" in order to eliminate them yet you have to zoom all the way which is ridiculous

Using just the short section of the tube on my 830 has worked well for me. BE AWARE that the lens will travel and impact the filter if zoomed too far. The shorter section alone for macro, the longer tube added for moderate to telephoto. I should add that you will have to zoom some to eliminate vignetting with the longer tube added but you're probably only at something like 70mm when it disappears.

Technically it works, but from an image quality point of view I've never used it. The lens creates very sharp images, the converter will remove the sharpness.

Vignetting on a zoom lens usually goes away at about 29 mm, but will occur at shorter extensions. Use at the longer extensions and it works great.

I use the adapter, a UV filter AND a Cokin filter ring on top of those two and get no vignetting on my SX-50.

The Polarizer is made in Japan, the filter is thin compared to cheaper ones. i have not had any problem with Vignetting using the Nikkor 18-105; i have also used it with the 70-300 VR, and never noticed any problems.Steve

No it does not. I've used it on my Nikon 80-400VR 4.5 and my now 800mm shots are clear with no vignetting. Hope this helps....Ron

No. You need a 50mm polarizer. You could get an adapter ring but that can start to cause vignetting at the corners. Get a 50mm polarizer.

the adapter ring has a thin strip of plastic that reveals a glue surface that permanently attaches to your camer. the ring contains a thread into which you screw the filters etc. for my purposes, the filters and lens hood seemed to obstruct the lens at wide angle depts and i was not crazy about the permanent gluing of the adapter ring to the lens, so i removed the equipment and have not used it.

Definitely vignetting with my Sigma 10 - 17 on my APS-C camera at the shorter lengths. Since this kit came with 2 holders I cut one holder down to hold just a single filter to solve the problem.

Ditto on the other answers, plus I added a Wide Angle Converter Lens. Expensive, but worth the price to avoid panning.

Yes you will see vignetting near the 24mm range and maybe in the 30mm range. If you use the polarizing filter take off the UV filter first. You do not need both on and the more you stack the worse the vignetting will get.

Yup twist clockwise. Note it may be easier to mount the adapter onto the camera first then mount the lens onto the adapter, also you may be able to use the lens in M or manual mode only, so don't forget to switch the camera to M mode first before turning the camera on with the lens already attached. Finally check that you have the latest firmware update available for you camera installed, it can improve the quality of your pictures.

Yep that is the way it performs with my camera also....but that is the way it is suppose to work. I have mine lens set at max to get rid of the circle.

Yes, definitely the thing to do . I'm using mine on a 49mm lens. It stops the filter vignetting by having it bigger than the lens.

I don't use any adaptors, I picked up two lens- One for a Sony A37, one for a Nikon D3100. I've used the Sony a lot, there is minimal vignetting. Still a great lens.

Yes, you can use an FE lens on an E-Mount camera that has an APS-C sensor. The image in the center of the lens is automatically cropped to the APS-C size so there are no dark corners surrounding the picture to cause vignetting.

I am using this with the a7r and zeiss 35mm 2.8 biogon and leica 90mm 2.8 tele-elmarit without any vignetting.
