I'm guessing on the 28 because I've never run film through with the lens, I've just looked through the viewfinder. The viewfinder isn't 100% field of view and I find it hard to notice light vingetting on the edge of the MZ-5n viewfinder (an issue which cost me a few frames when I had two stacked filters on a 24/2.8 lens). alex
