Hoya S-HMC UV filter and vignetting at 10mm wide (15mm in 35mm equivalent) Does anyone have this problem?

I would refer you to this link http://www.kenrockwell.com/tokina/11-16mm.htm where it is recommended for use at 11mm. Don't know if this totally answers the 10mm question but at least its a start.

I have been using B & W filters for years, and have seen nothing to support the vignetting that this question poses.

Yes, the wide angle lens shows a mechanical vignetting at a lower aperature. Even my telephoto lens did that at a lower aperture. I don't like that and I alway try to not show that in my shots because I don't like the abrupt look of the vignetting looking completely black. I like the more natural vignetting. Either way, I am still fine with this product because it does an ok job for the price.

Hi Andrew,By utilizing the lens adapter ring, I was able to attach a standard 52mm UV filter. Therefore, if all of the ancillary items you listed above attach with the same type of threading, you're good to go!However, the sx510 hs does not have interchangeable lenses. Hope this helps!

I would wager based on my experience with the B&W; standard lens filters that you would see some vignetting on both of these filters, even with the 010M I have to be aware of a slight darkening of the edges of my photo if I back off to 17mm ( I currently shoot a 17-40mm lens) The polarizer will definitely vignette. To avoid this issue I'd go with the "Slim" model filters B&W; produces for wide angle lenses.

I had the 52mm it is 5/16" thick. Oh ! it made in Japan. I did had a few 77mm but not Hoya. Hoya made a good filter but not the best one.

Thanks Anne. I will definitely look into this as I would like to get a UV filter for the lens.

I still have the box. I will see if I can find information. http://www.pegasuslighting.com/optivex-uv-filter.html look at this one

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.

I don't own that lens, but from some reading around it appears that regular filters are fine; however, I will make note that circular polarizers on a wide angle will produce very strange results due to uneven polarization. That may or may not be a concern depending if you want to use it for creative effect.

Thank you so much for the information. I bought some 58mm filters and an adapter and have held them in front. I will look for some 37mm so I can do your workaround. Thank you for the information.

Hey GadgetGirl,As far as I could check on the internet, your camera's lens does not have threads... This means that you will not be able to use any filters on it (the Hoya 55mm will not mount to tor lens).Anyways, this product is a filter, and (IMHO) it is not a good idea to use it as a replacement of a lens cover... The two products have different uses.For extra protection, one may use this filter AND the cover, or just the cover. But I would not use ONLY the UV filter.Hope this helps,Thiago

Hi Peter, mechanical vignetting happens when a the beam of light coming from an object is block by external objects like using a thick stack of filters or improper hood lens. Using a slim line filter will not produce vignetting on this Sony lens. -Ely

You can get a P89 thread adaptor at www.nextphoto.net. Works loke a charm. I used the 52 mm adaptor. then you get a standard UV filter. T. Preston

This is a standard filter size. I have had no problems with vignettes even at 10mm

On my zoom it is visible in the lens at the widest angle (24 mm) even when folded back completely. It is fine even at 30mm and I feel like it is a reasonable compromise. I need it for because I get terrible flare using my variable ND filter if I don't. Since the filter needs to rotate, I can't use a petal design that helps with avoiding blocking wide angle lenses.

You will need to purchase a adaptation set. I previously had one for other lenses/filters, so it wasn't a problem, but I can see where this might be frustrating if you did not have these.
