I'm really surprised that's happening. I don't own any Quantary for comparison, but I'm betting its ring is thicker. We're using both B&H and Hoya without any probs.

Are you using the lens on a full-frame or a film camera? If so, you probably do need a slim polarizer.

Yes,full frame digital. Now I need to get another polarizer!
That's probably the dif. We're using three of them on Nikon D2X and Fuji S2, but have never put them on a film body. FWIW- We've got a couple of the B&H thin polarizers, but reserve them for use only when absolutely required. They don't have front threads and won't accept conventional lens covers. Instead they have a slip-on cover that spends more time on the ground than on the camera. What a PITA!!!!
I guess the next question would be how close you come to vignetting without the filter, or are you in fact getting a little of that too, due to it's use on a full frame.
