Default vignette problem

when 18 - 55 reverse mounted on 70 - 300 do u have a vignette problem at any combination of focal length??
Are the images of the fly cropped or this is the whole image??

Well with the 18-55mm reversed on the 70-300mm, at 55mm your max aperture is what, 5.6? I havent tried that combination, but you may end up with something like this?



And then at 18mm you may get less vignetting like this:



I doubt you'll see this dramatic of a difference though between the different focal lengths of a reversed 18-55mm.
