It's pretty hard to say, but it looks like the image starts to fall off somewhere around the 20mm image circle mark wide open. I think I have a film camera around here someplace that offers sutter preferred auto, I might try my DA lenses out on film to see how much vignetting there is and if it goes away significantly as the lens stops down.
