Good point, one which I cannot answer because there's no water where either
dock or boat/ship *would* go - y'know how this drought's been.
Let's just say I fell off my feet. Since I was alone, no fall off was
observed. Therefore, Fat Viv at 28mm ceases to exhibit vignetting either at
f/11, or when unobserved.
I plan to repeat these tests soon - minus the fell-off part - on some
Zuikos.

Lex, technically, you fell off the pier into the dock. And you were a gob?
<g>
dock = place between the piers where one parks the boat, ah, ship.
