[OM] Lens Stacking Surprise

I've been stacking my 50mm and 35mm onto my Vivitar 135 f2.3 lens for some
shots.
I recently picked up a Zuiko 135 f2.8 figuring it would be easier to
manhandle than the Series 1.
The manhandling is easier.
I was quite surprised to find that the Zuiko would vignette much more easily
than the Vivitar.
With the Vivitar, I can close down to F22 with no problem with the 50mm, on
the Zuiko it starts to darken at f5.6
With the 35mm stacked on the Vivitar, I might get f8 while on the Zuiko, f4,
maybe f5.6.

Anyone else doing lens stacking and got stories or advice?
