Hexar AF Vignette

[md2008]

I haven't really noticed before, but this shot really shows vignetting with the Hexar AF. Anyone else noticed? This shot was taken with the hood out, no filter. I haven't done any +/- hood to see if that was the cause.

If it is due to the pull out filter at wide aperture, what other hoods are available to work with the Hexar?

The pull-out hood shouldn't cause any vignetting. This is probably just natural falloff from the lens at ƒ/2. My beloved Canon 35/2 has a very similar amount of vignette.

In this shot, it's more pronounced, because the shadows have been rendered quite dark. If you pull back on the contrast, it won't be as noticeable.

But personally, I like a little falloff!

My hexar does this and I love it.
