    I bought JFRey frames with Zeiss Smart Lenses. I’m glad I did. I’ve been on Safari in South Africa. You need good lenses to capture every detail of this beautiful country. Thank you Robert. You’re a legend.

    much more subtle outdoors I'm surprised they didn't reflect as much in the bright sun I bet that blue or green flash would pop. These outdoor photofusion videos are great it really helps get a better idea of what we can expect out of them. Hope to see the colors outdoors soon. Thanks

    Those frames really suit you. I love my new frames with rhe blue Photofusion flash! They look amazing and are great for reducing glare. Next on my list are possibly some square clear Barton Pereira frames with Adaptive Sun lenses, although still trying to work out the exact difference between those and the Photofusion!

    • @thespectaclefactory
      @thespectaclefactory  Рік тому +2

      That would be the perfect next step! So Adaptive Sun is always tinted, but goes darker when needed (as opposed to PhotoFusion which is clear when not activated)

    I have a question. Is it possible to have 1.9 high index but in plastic so that a person can opt for rimless eyeglasses? I am talking about a case of someone's prescription being strong and needing 1.9 high index. Thanks

    • @thespectaclefactory

      Not in plastic, but you could drill 1.9 glass if rimless was absolutely essential to you.

    I tried googling it, but couldn’t get a clear answer- can you apply a flash coating on a pair of glasses used whilst driving at night? I know tint of any sort is a no no. But curious about maybe like a gradient mirror coating on top of Drivesafe w/ Photofusion X

    I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again the only problem with these Photofusion lenses is that in theory they can go super dark (around 87% I think) but the reality is that in almost all normal situations they never do. Maybe in the next gen or two they can fix this flaw.

    • @capturedphoton
      @capturedphoton Рік тому

      true esp if you wear a hat. I think 25 percent tint plus a photo fusion would be nice. They def look way different than in the shop with the uv torch.

      @thespectaclefactory  Рік тому +1

      As much as I love them, I'm always saying that they do not replace sunglasses. If you go in with that expectation, you'll be disappointed. But if you think of them as glasses with a bonus, then you'll love them.

      I'm a global ambassador for Zeiss but I'm not paid to be. I also rate Hoya and many other lens brands (I wore Hoya in the next video after this I think), and I'm currently testing out Leica.
      There's no bias on this channel. I just think Zeiss are the best.

    What a nice coincidence - among the tints I was considering for my JF Rey Carbon Wood pair (the JF2863 in gold) was this exact combination (or possibly the AdaptiveSun instead of the Photofusion X version). Really nice to see how it would actually look.
    You mention versatility of the pair - how do you think the wood on the frame would take to harsh conditions, such as hot (up to 35 degrees) weather, and perhaps getting caught in a sudden downpour?

    • @thespectaclefactory

    Hello Robert, unique outdoors glasses-in-action video! Speaking of Smartlife lenses, is it possible to get clear Zeiss Smartlife SV lenses with a Silver Duravision Mirror coating… with no tint? Just clear lenses with a mirror coating? Would the mirror effect be prominent and obvious?

    • @marcusdesilva8405
      @marcusdesilva8405 Рік тому

      If it's any help, he's got a video on light tints. I would specifically point out the example of his combination of rose (10%) with flash Jade. The diamond (silver) coating is much more prominent, so that's probably a good baseline for you to compare. There are other colours in 12% tints that really are not obvious at all, if you don't like to look like you obviously have a tint. I'm personally wearing a 25% tint (without a flash tint) and even that is only barely noticeable (I have a dark complexion).

    The Zeiss website directed me to an ophthalmologist in my area. My experience was a nightmare. He did not use any Zeiss equipment for the exam, the optician seemed to have no idea how to order Zeiss lenses, and told me that I could not order lenses online. Much to my chagrin, turns out they failed to record my pupillary distance on my prescription. My exam measurements are in .25 increments, so it doesn't seem worth the extra money to pursue my dream Zeiss glasses any further. Consumers need to practice due diligence to avoid my experience.
