Just started using this &amp; it's great, but does anyone have tips on dealing with fogginess on my lenses?

There should be no fogginess! I do rinse mine with regular saline usually before using. But there is nothing this solution does that makes anything unclear. The peroxide changes to saline. CLEAR saline.

I'd say skip the lense. In order to get a more diffused light, I made a disk of lens tissue slightly larger than the included glass lens, placed it on the inside face of the glass and put the cover back on. This does dim the overall output a bit, but it's very bright, so the diffusion is worth it (for me). It's still painfully bright, do NOT look into these lights, you'll have a blind spot for 20 minutes!

I think general eyeglass cleaner works fairly well. Occasionally I will clean the lenses off with soap and water. I haven't noticed any build up type issues on my iPad screen. Where I think this item works best is in keeping your lenses "clean" for longer, especially if you have anti-glare coating which seems to attract smudges. It also making them easier to clean on the fly in less than ideal situations.

Thank you very much for your thorough explanation of this issue. I've been struggling with it since purchasing the camera and had been thinking of returning it. I will follow your recommendations re: purchasing the filter & adapter.

Hi there, I were glasses too and all I have to do is adjust them before I lower the the helmet visor. As for fogging up this is not the best sometimes it does but once I take off with my motorcycle it clears in no time.

The short answer is "no" but I picked up some anti-fog spray in the optical dept. at WalMart and applied it before I ever wore them at the range. I had fogging problems with other glasses previously but so far, at the same range and under the same conditions, no fogging problem with these glasses. I hope this helps.

Thanks here too. Pulled on the lens. Worked first time, then got another error next on/off. Tried a few more times. So far so good now.

Just follow Sylvania's instructions up to the last step. The lenses still appear foggy to that point, but the final step brings them back crystal clear.

Not bad to me :-)I mostly use MF lenses adapter on it and the peak value is very useful!

Many thanks for replying. Have just ordered an adapter ( cheaply), as I only wanted the lens to play around with. Lesson learnt ; Hubby cannot buy lenses without me knowing what he's paying out for !!

Always keep your lens in a dry environment. I carry with me lens brush and a little chamois. I've gotten used to clean them all the time with the brush to take the dust of the glass and the body. After brushing it, I apply the chamois on the glass if it got wet by the rain, for example

Lenses are clear.I suppose you could scuff them up with sand paper or have them sand blasted to get the frosted look.Another trick that works and is simple to do is to use really cheap aerosol hairspray or polyurethane (water proof and more permanent) and spray it into the air above the lens, letting the mist fall onto the lens. This works great for making frosted camera filters and should do well for your needs too.Hope it helps.

Definitely used it through eyepro- take the time to fully focus for distance viewing beforehand to save time though. If you use prescription lenses/inserts it will work with you as well, again take the time to focus it both settings in a "stress free" environment.

I left a review. It looked like new for a few months. Then it developed a haze. The clear coat seems to become opaque. It does scratch easily also. After 1 year I re-did mine because I hated the hazy look again. It was much easier to de-do because most of the oxidation was already sanded off last year. I prefered the Wipe New due to easier to use sanding pad and pre-soaked clear coat micro fiber patch applied it evenly and easily without runs or dripping. I used the rag afterwords on the black plastic trim and tailight lenses to amazing effect. I expect it will also haze after a year and be hard to remove but it looks fantastic for now.

I've not worn this item with any type of glasses but I can say that the fabric is loose enough around the eye opening to wear glasses without it pressing the frames against your head in an uncomfortable manner. I only wear glasses when shooting, while doing so I've found that fogging is unavoidable. I would recommend checking out anti-fogging wipes or spray to use before putting on your glasses/goggles.

I smacked mine a couple of times on the side of the lens took an air can and blew in all the cracks and crevices, Put electronic endust on a lens cleaning tissue and forcefully pulled the telephoto lens out gently while pushing on the extension button and wiped it all clean several times. Even ran the tissue a ways into the crevice surrounding the lens. Somehow it started working again which thrilled me since Ehow wanted $176 just to look at it if I would send it in. It still sounds a little scratchy but I will continue cleaning it every use. It sounds like it has a minute piece of sand or something in it. Hope this will work for you.
