Are the lenses separate fram the mask itself? Will they stay where they are supposed to when under water? How quickly can I get this if I live in LA

You don't have to order separate goggles. The VPS500A Parts Kit will fit to your separate lenses. That is the idea of the kit - so that you can use different strength lenses for each eye. If your prescriptions are the same in each eye, you can just buy other prescription swim goggles. But with different strength lenses, you purchase the lenses and the parts kit separately. Has been working great for me - over one year - no problem. Anti Fog has worn off- I just purchased an anti fogger here on Amazon.

The lens has never been dropped and it has not been exposed to water. I am including the hard case with the lens. To be honest, I wrestled for a long time if I should sell this lens or not. I no longer shoot sports photography or do I shoot wildlife photography. I have a family and feel selfish keeping an expensive lens I use occassionally now. I am shooting more photojournalism than anything else. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

The lens is not Weather-sealed. You can buy weather-sealed ones separately (obviously more expensive) but the standard lens that came with my kit was not WR.

0votes No problem! However, I have lost 2 adapters already. They easily come off when you're not paying attention. I also change lenses underwater with no problems at all. 0votes I shoot with the adapter on underwater all the time. You can use it in and out of the water without harm. Make sure to rinse the camera off with the adapter off in fresh water after use in slat water so the screws can get fresh water on them. You'll see a white powdery coating on the screw heads if you don't rinse well enough.

yes. I think I know what you're talking about. Mine aren't fogging so much, but vision is terribly impeded - almost looks like a thin coating of vaseline or something on the lens - horrible optically. Tried pump quick spit and even washed - no difference. In fact, I've stopped using them and back to the less comfortable but optically correct Speedos.

Not really sure. I used them on my bike trip to Stugis this year and really liked them as they seemed to stop wind from whipping behind the lens. Had some light rain several times and they didn't fog but it was pretty warm out. I just like the ability to change lens to fit the conditions. Note - don't grab the soft rubber nose piece when changing lenes- hold on to the hard plastic piece.

I guess it depends on where you do the sanding. I was completely outside and I did not feel the need for a mask. Also, the dust did not really fly around so much as it kind of clumped and laid on the lense. It wiped off easily and controlled.

I would get the lenses prescribed with an optical or if not get a mask that will let u put perscription on them. I wear glasses too.I just put my contacts when i go diving!!

We keep the adapter on our cameras- we have two- and use it under water with no problem without the fisheye or teleconverter lens. It's nice to keep the adapter on, because that's the only way to use a lens cap.

These did get dropped into a pool, but rescued quickly without ill effect. They seem to be water repellant but IF they get soaking wet the lenses fog up with condensation. We left them outside (lost in the bushes) and it took about a week in rice to dehydrate the condensation.

I am not sure which answer you are looking for, I purchased the replacement lens set and I am also a diver. So to answer your question I will describe each of the 3 total lense doors that i have. The original lense that came with my waterproof case works great for diving. I have personally had it to 125' with no problems. The second lense door that i use for diving is the flat one that came in the replacement lense door kit. I have had it to 125' as well with no problems. Either of these will work for diving. The original does give a slight fisheye image, that the flat one does not. The third lense is the second one int replacement door kit. It is designed for enhanced sound pickup and works on rainy days but is not for diving. I hope my somewhat longwinded answer helps you. I am glad that i purchased the replacement doors i have used both of them with good results. Mike W.

You have to make sure you buy the correct lens cleaner for the lenses, only wipe them with a dry microfiber cloth and never wipe them with your fingers. Sounds impossible but the coating works great and it keeps the fog away 99% of the time. Whenever I got some fog I just wiped in some more of the protectant(comes with the goggles) and boom good to go.

The lenses are very easy to change, however there is a trick to it. It will take a little practice. They will not fit over prescription lenses however.

It is up to you and your prescription lens provider. You can add UV protection to the clear lens when you order them. I did not as I assumed I would have the sunglasses "down" most of the time. I do add UV protection to my normal glasses that I wear every day.

I've had no problem keeping the lens clean with a standard lens brush/cleaner. as for ruggedness...well this is my second WG-2. the first one leaked as soon as I entered the water on St John USVI leaving me without a camera for the whole trip! so I strongly recommend testing your camera in the water BEFORE you take it on that long snorkeling trip...
