Q: 1. Might be a dumb question but can this be used with a 77mm filter on a 62mm lense? from the description it seems like its meant more for the other way around

A: This ring is to attach a 62mm filter to a 77mm lens thread but for wide lenses, that's a no-no, vignetting will occur.

Q: 2. Any observed drawbacks when used on a Sony G-Master 85mm (77mm) with a 72mm Zeiss Polarizer ?

A: There will always be issues using a smaller size filter than the filter threads of the lens. Most notably you are likely to get vignetting.

Q: 6. I have a 37mm opteka fisheye lens and i want it to fit on my panasonic pv-gs400 which has a 43mm thread. Will this stepup down ring fit the fisheye on the 43mm lens?

A: Sorry, if you were to mount this smaller lens onto a larger lens, you will get vignetting. For the PV-GS400, here is a fine fish eye for you. Raynox HDP-2800ES High Definition 0.28x Diagonal Fisheye Conversion Lens B&H # RAHDP2800ES. Yes, it is more expensive but it will work.

Q: 8. I'll be using this on my 85mm Tessar ZM which has 43mm filter thread. All of my filters (CPL and ND) have 39mm filter thread. Will my 85mm Lens vignette by using this item?

A: Anytime you use a step-down ring to use a smaller filter on the front of a lens with a larger filter diameter, you run the risk of obtaining some vignetting. Unfortunately, we have no way to test or guarantee which lens/focal length combinations. While vignetting would normally be more noticeable with wide angle lenses compared to telephoto lenses, I cannot guarantee you will not get vignetting. The best I can state would be to purchase the item and see if it works for your needs, and if it does not, you would have 30 days to return the item for an exchange or refund via our 30-Day Return Policy on this item.

Q: 9. Does this cause heavy vignetting with prime lenses for example 50mm?

A: No, you should not get vignetting with a 50mm lens.
