Now I just bought a Sigma 30mm PRIME lens that uses 62mm . Should I just by a step down adapter? So I can use the 58mm filters from the kit lens? Any disadvantages like vignetting (which I doubt). Any feedback is appreciated.. You can simply try the combination. Use an opaque tape such as black electrical tape to temporarily mount one of your 58mm filters to the new lens at the approximate distance from the lens that a step-down ring would place it.
