I recently used a Cokin p holder on this lens and it was obviously too small for the wide angle images. Is there another holder for the p size filters that I can use on wide angle lenses? Seem to have photographed a few extra fingers in some landscape shots.. I don't want to have to upgrade all the filters.
I haven't seen a mount dedicated for wide lenses, but have been able to adapt mine for lenses a lot wider than 24mm. I just cut off the front slots so there's only one virtually flush against the lens. Works for me since I don't stack filters. BTW- I just used a hacksaw to make the cuts, then smoothed the surface (more or less! ) with a file.

Cokin makes a holder specifically for wide angle lenses. It only holds a single filter but works for focal lengths up to 20mm. I use it for my 16-50 lens on an APS-C camera and it works well. It is listed on this page http://www.cokin.co.uk/pages/cokinP.htm
