I just picked up my first real camera ;-) A Canon PowerShot Pro1. I experienced my first incounter with Vignetting the other day. I had no filters attached and no lens hood. Any suggestions in reducing this problem?

ND filters and polarizers can reduce vignetting.

Can you show us an example?

| We need more info to offer help. What did you experience? Try backing off of maximum zoom and see if that helps. |

?
Maybe I'm thinking of something different when I think of vignetting. But to me it occurs when the edge of the lens/ filters/ lens hood etc, encroach on the image and cause shadowing around the edges.
ND filters and polarisers can cause vignetting, particularly if they extend too far out from the lens - but I don't know that they do much to reduce it.

i think - but could be wrong - vignetting can be caused by a low/med quality lense at a longer focal length, and a wide aperture.
i have seen some shaded/darker corners from images taken with the canon 75-300mm f:4-5.6 at 300mm - f:6.3 & f:5.6
i havent noticed it with the 18-55mm efs lense

Heres a shot I took where the vignetting is more visible.

Its only on the left side but other phtoos taken at the same time had it on all corners.
I dont get this that often, im just curious as to why its happening when theres no Lens Hood or Filter attached. I also experienced it on a shot where i used no zoom. This was when the sun was low in the horizon.

You can get fall off at the corners even without vignetting, particularly in wide-angle lenses. In a normal wide-angle lens there will be a light fall of that is equal to the forth power of the cosign of the ray coming into the lens. This means that a 28mm fl lens (equivalent 35mm) would be expected to have a fall off of 60% at the extreme corners, or about 1.3 stops.
What was the fl of the lens you where using?

Here's a photoshop plugin that is meant to reduce vignetting (I can't vouch for it personally thogh):
