Lugger Jim Shulman gifted me with three Wollensak c-mount 16mm lenses 
yesterday, a 25 1.5 which works fine, a (I think) 16mm 2.5 which vignettes 
like crazy - like not useable vignettes - and a, I want to say 75mm f 2.5 
which works great. So, two out of the three cover the frame completely, the 
third doesn't even come close. I mean, it's like a porthole in a giant black 
wall.

So, ymmv.
