Vignetting is not a problem with my 36mm filters and the camera screwed directly to the wheel. There is no more than maybe 12-15mm of separation. Illumination is equal across the field.
That's very good then. Vignetting also comes from the scope and the F ratio of the scope, whether there are any reducers/flatteners/adapters, off axis guiders etc etc. What aperture scope are you using?
