Which lens is right for you?
How we perceive the underwater world is largely determined by what we see, and the mask we use is therefore the most important piece of equipment for most, if not all, scuba divers.
Diving in caves is a different experience from snorkelling in tropical seas. Likewise, diving in lower visibility, temperate waters is different from the near unlimited visibility of some blue water locations.
Fourth Element’s lens system in theSCOUTDive Mask is designed to deliver an optimised experience for different conditions when diving – whether for underwater photographers looking to maximise the light transmission or wreck divers needing to enhance their perception of dimly lit surroundings.
Your dive adventure is unique and taking in the wonders of our underwater world requires a lens tailored specifically to your dive.
THE CLARITY LENS:
Maximising the amount of transmitted light, without any tint from impurities in the glass, the CLARITY is the ideal lens for night divers and photographers. The CLARITY lens is manufactured with the highest level of purity to deliver maximum visual acuity during a dive.
THE CONTRAST LENS:
CONTRAST Lens filters out some of the mid-range wavelengths of light in the visible spectrum. The contrast lens has a green appearance.
THE ENHANCE LENS:
Filtering Ultraviolet and HEV (High Energy Visible) radiation, the Enhance lens is designed to protect the eye and enhance the visual experience.
It is well known that UV has a damaging effect on the eye, but it has also been shown that HEV light can interfere with the lutein proteins in the eye and alter them, so filtering out this High Energy radiation can help to preserve optical health.
Masks are an essential piece of equipment for anyone exploring the underwater world, whether through scuba diving or snorkeling. For new divers and snorkelers, selecting the right mask is crucial for comfort, safety, and a great viewing experience.
Scuba Diving Masks are designed to withstand the pressure of deeper waters and provide a clear, panoramic view of the marine life below. They are typically made of tempered glass for safety and feature a silicone skirt that seals against the face to prevent water entry. These masks are compatible with prescription lenses for those with vision correction needs.
Snorkeling Masks share many features with scuba masks but are generally lighter and designed for surface exploration. They offer a wide field of vision and are ideal for those who prefer to stay near the water's surface.
Full Face Dive Masks cover the entire face, integrating the mask and the regulator. This design allows for natural breathing through the nose and mouth, enhanced communication capabilities underwater through built-in communication systems, and often includes anti-fog technology. These masks are favored by professional and technical divers for their advanced features.
Full Face Snorkeling Masks have become popular for their user-friendly design, allowing snorkelers to breathe naturally through the nose and mouth. They cover the entire face for a wide field of vision and reduce fogging through a separate breathing chamber. However, it's important to choose models with safety features to prevent CO2 buildup.
When choosing a mask, fit, comfort, and field of vision are key considerations. A proper seal against the face is crucial to prevent water from entering the mask. For those new to diving or snorkeling, visiting a dive store for a fitting and advice on the best mask for your needs and budget is recommended.
