Hi Pirate - thanks for the link - I just posted a query about this in the PMA thread. Built in hood? Sounds like no option to attach my square filter systems then. Also, no mention of filter thread size. I think the Sigma 12-24 in FF has a similar draw back due to the huge front element. Ah well, the search for a bargain 11-18 continues.
Nex 5, Nex 6 (IR), A7M2, A99 and a bunch of lenses.
