I always use clear lenses, I was never much for the tinted/colored lenses. The tinted/colored lenses bother me, I like to see things the way they are and not with a tint or in a different color. I don't know maybe I'm strange....

I like dark lenses like blue because they reduce glare and people can't tell where you're looking.

I have a chrome and a yellow. I like the yellow much better, makes darker colors stand out a little more. The chrome being mirror may reflect back inwards making the vision a little awkward.

But what is the essence of the color. Is it merely to reflect light in a different vein, or is there more. And if the yellow lens reflects yellow, does that mean that there's been a shift in the sun's position causing more yellow light rays to be directed onto the lens? Could it be that some Superior Being is causing us to think that yellow is yellow, when in fact it's really amber or blue?

Do gravity and Black Holes play a roll in this shift in the spectrum? How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?

i have a yellow and a blue chrome. I use both of them to reduce glare, but i use the chrome cuz it looks good.

Whats also weird to think is if what I know as red looks the same as what you know as red. We are all taught the name for each color, but that doesnt nessecarily mean that the colors look the same to each of us.

There is really no way to tell...

I recommend a camo lens. You can buy one at http://www.paintballgods.com. You can also get evil looking ones with tiger eyes or an American flag and lots of other cool stuff.

Yeah i think those chrome lenses are really sweet looking. I was gonna get one with my flex 7 black and clear but 24 buck was more then i wanted to pay so I stuck with the clear lens. If anybody is looking for a mask fo with the flex 7 it is awesome

Those things at paintballgods are Skinz, which you stick on the lense. The idea is that you can use them to prevent reflection of the lense, or just have a sweet picture on it.

I've never actually used one of these, so I don't know what it's like to look out of one. There mihgt be more info at their page: http://www.tacpro.com

On the subject of lense colours, yellow tends to have a nice effect which makes things stand out more, infact once you get used to it and take them off, everything seems kinda strange, but I think it's a matter of personal preference really.
