I've tried both the 18-55, 50-200 and sigma 10-20. They all vignette severly, and from I what I noted you end up having the same FOV they give you on the crop sensor. Just as the field begins to widen (compared to the 1.5x crop), the corners turn black. So what you really get is the same size image from the digital sensor printed on film, with empty black space around it.
