Hi Frank!

The 400 Telyt f6.8 does not have a vignetting problem.  However, when 
used with an old SL vintage 2x converter, it does.  But, when I put 
the combination on my DMR, the vignetting is no longer visible, as it 
falls outside the sensor area.  Pictures are PERFECT!

I suspect the 21SA on the M is a similar situation.

BTW:  The Telyt does not vignette with the newer APO converters.

Cheers!
