Looking to ski in Colorado, would they work for the environment? And if so what color lense is best?

I've never been to Colorado but from my experiences the pinkish lens worked pretty good in bright daylight. I've used them in about 25-35 degree weather just fine.

From other sites I've read, and in my own experience in Colorado (Keystone and Winter Park), yellow (Citrus here, apparently) is the best overall color--for sun, cloudy and, what you'll get on many runs outside of the 11-1 time period without the sun directly overhead, shade from the trees next to the run. Pink is for sun mostly--I had pink and had difficulty reading the slope in tree shade, seeing all the ruts and dips. I had yellow back in the day, seemed much better.

These are great goggles for skiing..for me. Not sure what safety standards should be met for paintball. Id seek out safety approved eyewear before stepping in front of a projectile aimed at my face.

I am not sure for cros country I would say yes if you ave mooth bottom skis. If have fishscale type base ski , good for climbing I would do more internt research . I do know Hertel is a good long lasting wax for downhill skis.

It depends what you're planning to use it for. If you're thinking wildlife in the daylight then this lens is fantastic handheld.

This is primarily a Macro lens, for shooting tiny things. It would work for northern lights, but there are probably better choices out there, depending on your budget and camera type.

They come with a #5 welding lens. Waay too dark for everyday use. Perhaps the clear lenses (or you could buy aftemarket tinted lenses) would work. These lenses may also not be shatter resistant. If you get hit by a rock, it could take your eye out. M/C goggles are meant to take road hazards. Your local motorcycle shop probably has better alternatives though.

I love mine. I went to Colorado and had my d7000 w/. 18-55 mm lens, 2 Gary Fong diffusers, 2 ND filters in their cases, AND my windbreaker in the top section, and it was not too hard to zipnit up either. Hope this halos!

The pair I have are as far as I know are waterproof and fog resistant. I have hunted with them in the rain and the snow, have taken them from below zero into a nice warm house with absolutely no problems. They still have a sharper picture than my brother's-in-law leupold binocs. Great product.

I used it with red & green lenses & loved the color scheme. The light is somewhat muted by the colors but still plenty bright to be visible.

The standard lens is a spot. The Wide angle creates a horizontal rectangle of light. The ideal set up for night mountain biking is to have the spot on your helmet and the wide angle on your handle bar. Works great!

They can if there is "decent" lighting. The lenses are a medium tint and not dark. Bolle does offer other lenses to use formvarying conditions, but I found they could be as expensive as the goggles themselves (at least at the price I paid for these). Sams Club had a pair that included what they called a "storm" lens that is yellow and provides more light. They were $40 a pair, so I opted for these. Hope that helps a little.....

I don't think so...they just filter the sun but make everything so much brighter and the greens are so much greener.... its a dark yellow lens, with no silver refective material on the outside...hope this helps..

I have no personal experience with these lenses and am not color-blind myself. The Popular Science article quotes some color-blind people who claim it works for them, but it may be limited to certain types of color-blindness, and results will probably vary per person.

I just got back from a trip out west and took some amazing landscape photos, hundreds of them. Grand Tetons to ocean pictures.This was my main lens for these pictures. It performed very well. I took over 1,500 photos on this trip. Great bang for thebuck. Be careful if shooting into the sun. Some flaring may occur even with the glare cover on, but it can be controlled.This is a good lens to keep on your camera for all purpose use. (My Opinion)

I would choose something wider for landscaping, but for details and wildlife, this lens is great! As long as you have a lot of light, at least. Its real potencial shows when you use it at f/6.3 or smaller apertures. Hope this helps you.

Absolutely. Just make sure they are placed where rocks and road debris are minimal--otherwise order an ample supply of lenses.
