I don't use UV filters, and never put a filter on the 16-50.
Filters on very short focal lengths like that often cause problems
with infinity focus.

Thanks Godfrey, if you have this lens do you know if it vignette's
at the widest ?

Hoya Pro-1 slim filters have a front thread.

filters on their's are doing?
I have a Hoya super slim (3mm) UV on it now, but it has no female
threads to receive the Pentax cap.
Is anyone using a 'normal' thickness filter with female threads
on their 16-50mm f2.8 DA* & does it vignette @ the widest setting?
Vignetting is not an issue with the super slim, but I'd sure like
the ability to use the Pentax lens cap.
