Questions & Answers

Can Costa or Serengeti lenses be put into only the respective frame? For example, could I have them put into a sun clip? Idice to have a high quality lense into the sun clip

I have just bought Serengeti 555nm Blue Mirror and Costa Blue Mirror.

The Serengeti's VLT is supposed to be 8-25%

The Costa's 10%

Now I have to say that the Serengeti's don't get anywhere near as dark as the Costa's although they are rated to go 2% darker. And I am talking about in full sun, very bright conditions. Why is that so???

I was thinking about getting the Serengeti drivers as well, however they will probably be even less dark in full sun I imagine?

Can you comment on the above, I am keen to hear your perspective. Especially any scientific explanation.

Hi, thinking about getting a set of MJ Southern Cross with the HCL lens. But what I can't find anywhere is will the lens have the bi-gradient mirror? Do all HCL lenses have it? Or only in some models? Can you get it both with and without?

Hope someone can set me straight. Thanks.

Hi, I am torn between the two above sunnies. I am wanting them mainly for offshore fishing. One thing I like about the Serengeti is it is photochromic so should be a bit more versatile being able to work in lower light conditions than the Costa. What would you say to that? I have read all your reviews already BTW. Great work, Appreciated.

And then the other thing is that I want two different pairs. So probably if I was to get the Serengeti Blue, for offshore fishing & general use. I may also get the Drivers for driving, general use and fishing inshore and overcast conditions.

If I get the Costa's then would be likely to get the second Costa's as the green mirror 580G version for inshore fishing, driving and general use.

Which two do you think would be the best pairing for those use cases and complementary…
