Which lens do you like to ride with? Let us know in the comments below!

[@markhenderson558]

i bought the M3 with the Sonar Green and Sonar Infrared. I'm adding the sonar smoke individually. So I will have 7% for bluebird days, 57% for flat light, and 23% for everything in between.

[@quirinstark2387]

Thanks SportRx for your videos about anon googles and lenses! Been watching them for some days now. Helped me a lot to decide which one is the best for me in terms of look and usage. I choose the the same as mark above: M3 sonar infrared

Just got back from France, the goggles performed fantastic. Never fogged once and the mfi is a brilliant invention! I bought Oakley flight deck the year before and had big problems with fog between the 2 lenses, I had no problems with these

[@MaggusMcBue]

I bought the M4 Toric with Sonar Smoke and Blue. After this video still the Sonar Green with 23%. So I'm well equipped for all conditions in the Alps.

[@weswilson7401]

am I missing it or did they just skip over the plain amber lense?

[@facestamper5334]

I want the smoke for sunny and it looks badass AF. But my main concern is low light so I want the infrared. But I can't get them together. Even as maybe the most expensive goggle on the market I'd still have to go and buy a third lense. I contacted Burton direct and even though they've got access to all lenses they still won't provide the customer what he wants. I maybe wrong pairing these two but surely that's my prerogative?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi there! The goggle lens are matched up with you receiving a dark and light tint and we would have to offer them as they are. You would, unfortunately, have to purchase the infrared as an additional lens.

[@facestamper5334]

In a market with so many companies offering the same lense technology that's backwards 🤯

[@alpineaustralia]

Sonar Green is a great all rounder. Sonar infrared is great for flat light.

This is Mark from Anon, great question. For Vail, I would suggest Red. Green is better for places with more variable sun conditions. It is pretty sunny at Vail.

when i buy the anon goggles, it comes with 2 lens.the question is can i pick any 2 whatever i want? or i can not choose, its already been picked in box.

[@lonestar1572]

Looking for new goggles and the m4 looks awesome. I’m curious why, when you’re showing the contrast of the low light lenses, it’s done on a sunny day? Doesn’t make any sense. I live in Oregon and ski on Mt. Hood and rarely have full all day sun. You need to show the low light lenses on an actual cloudy, snowy/ rainy day. Thanks!

[@sportrxeyewear]

That's a great question and a fair observation! We don't usually get as much time on the mountain as we like and it may be largely sunny when we go up. You are correct, though. Thank you for your feedback!

[@CostoBlok]

i have the M3 Dark Smoke Lens and the Blue Lagoon, do you recommend for cloudy / snowy / stormy weather like for the Austrian Salzburg weather the Sonar infrared Lens? Is the Sonar a big step up or should I is stick with the Blue Lagoon? When i go 40 times a year snowboarding 20 times is cloudy! greets

[@xpreesss]

Is the Sonar Green more like orange or pink from the inside? I am just thinking how to compare them to prizm (I have Rose).

[@aloebeara]

Well done. That clears a lot up. What's your opinion of the standard, Amber replacement lens?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi there! The standard amber lens would be best for low light conditions as it is a light lens.

[@longlivechina7538]

Can you make a video on the polarized lens??

[@sportrxeyewear]

Their polarized lenses are pretty rare these days with the focus on their Perceive lens tech. We haven't had our hands on a pair, but we find that the polarized lenses make it harder to decipher ice from snow because it cuts the glare that you normally get bouncing off of the ice. If we can get our hands on a pair, we will!

[@Regulo.calo.]

Can you guys review the new Oakley mod 1 helmet.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Carlos! Thanks for the suggestion!

[@urban248]

Hey! May I ask if these lense are the same on their Sync colection? Thanks!

If you're asking about the Sync for this season, then you are going to be getting their new Perceive lens tint tech. For all you need to know about that, check this out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mWe4maafhNGfmtk Thank you for watching!

[@brittahaglund9680]

What is the difference between the Anon perceive and sonar lens? And do any of the women’s goggles have sonar lens?

[@sportrxeyewear]

You can expect a bit more 'pop' out of Perceive lenses. Overall, you are still getting an amazing lens for color/contrast-enhancement and is great for reading the terrain and dealing with flat light!

[@Frankie_G_]

Which is better for whiteout cloudy day from their new Perceive line, Cloudy Pink 53% or Cloudy Burst 59%? Thanks

[@sportrxeyewear]

Honestly, either would be great. When you consider the VLT of these compared to a lot of other low light snow lenses out there, this is on the high (more light) end of the range. If you are looking for the most light, then go for the Cloudy Pink. You would likely not be able to tell the difference between the two if you were to compare the two side-by-side.

[@sabotage3d]

I got the combo with Sonar Silver and Sonar Blue. I am worried Sonar Silver is too dark. Would it feel good for normal sunny days or I would be better with Sonar Red?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Sorry for the delay! The Sonar Silver is great for normal sunny days. Hopefully, you've gotten to wear them now and you like them as much as we do!

[@ranasina4366]

Thank you for this video! For example, if i order Slate, Lens: SONAR Silver (6% VLT), which one is the 2nd lens suitable to it that will be included in the order?

[@sportrxeyewear]

[@sportrxeyewear]

That is very true! We can always try to get something for you, but we don't generally stock their replacement lenses.

I'll answer myself: I asked to Anon directly and they said no. MAYBE in a shop you get a different answer.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hey Marco! Sorry for the delayed response but unfortunately we do not sell it that way either. It looks like you would have to order a spare lens separately if you wanted one that wasn't originally included.

[@rodysk8]

Can we use the 77% lenses in cloudy stormy days instead of nights? Thanks

[@sportrxeyewear]

Absolutely! It will - obviously - be a bit brighter, but it doesn't sound like you have sensitive eyes. I always prefer to have more light come through rather than less because you can always squint, but you can't do whatever the opposite of squint is!

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hello Dave! Sonar Silver is on the dark end of the spectrum and Sonar Infrared is really meant for low light conditions. We would recommend using Sonar Silver until it is getting too dark to see. It should work even as the clouds move in and your eyes start to adjust.

[@fviktor0717]

Hi, I am thinking between these two variaty: Sonar wmoke + sonar infrared or Sonar red + sonar blue And maybe a third lens later on. Oh and is the main difference between the silver and the smoke? Thanks:)!

Hi Viktor! Great choices. The main difference with the silver and smoke is that the silver lens has a mirror coating making it a bit darker compared to the smoke lens. Thanks for reaching out!

Hello guys. Could you please explain me difference between Sonar lens and perceive. It’s not the same thing right?

While it is not the same thing, there is little info directly comparing the two. While we have only had minimal experience with Perceive with how new it is, I can say with confidence - based on my personal experience - if you like Sonar, you will like Perceive. I found great contrast-enhancement as well as flat light control.

[@sportrxeyewear]

@@skahww1036 That’s a great question! It depends a lot on the conditions in which you normally ride. I personally tend to prefer getting more light than less because I can’t figure out how to do the opposite of squinting. I’d rather squint a bit than to struggle if I find myself in lower light conditions. With that being the case, my choice would be the Perceive Variable and Perceive Cloudy

[@skahww1036]

@@sportrxeyewear Thanks for your answer. I have a different question. :) I have tried on the Anon M4 and it felt like the peripheral vision wasn't even that good. I have compared it to the Oakley Flight Deck and the Atomic count 360 hd. Especially the Atomic Count had a WAY better Field of fiew. Maybe thats because of the thinner frame of these goggles? But thin frames might result in fogging right? (I currently own the Atomic count and it fogs too much). The Anon M4 has a really thick frame in comparison, is that an advantage even for people that do not wear glasses underneath?

[@ilionatroya7129]

Do they all have amber as base tint? Any rose base tint?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Ilion! They all have an amber base tint. The Sonar Red lens would be closest to a rose lens color.

[@nathanharvey4946]

Is there a difference between SONAR and VIVID

[@400sales]

This is Mark from Anon. Both Sonar and Vivid are made by Zeiss, but Sonar was Zeiss's snow specific lens tints. I feel Sonar has a bit more contrast than Vivid personally.

[@opfreakx7661]

Any concerns with the lenses popping off in a crash?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi there! I am sure if you crash hard enough they will pop off. But tat that point you will have more to worry about than just your goggles...The magnetic interchange is awesome and having the lens fall off isn't something you should have to worry about!

[@Bushwacked487]

I own it. The magnets are pretty strong. You would have to crash REALLY hard to get them to pop off. Not a concern imo.

[@glenadams3768]

Going skiing in Banff in Feb, what would be the best overall lens for the conditions there?

[@tekoasemeniuk7141]

Hey, Lake Louise is my home mountain. If you need just one lense I would recommend the Bronze or Green. We tend to have very few clouds so the you want something that leans toward the sunny side of the spectrum. However, two lenses is smartest. I would pack a bluebird in the top four (Silver mirror to Bronze) and a lowlight (Sonar Blue to Infrared Mirror). I personally run 3 lenses on my Anon M2, the Bluebird Silver, the Midrange Green, and the Infrared Mirror. Hope that helps!

[@glenadams3768]

Tekoa Semeniuk thanks for the response! Can’t wait to go to Lake Louise, looks incredibly picturesque! I was leaning towards the Green initially but was toying with a 3rd lens but wasn’t sure whether to go for a Bluebird lens or Whiteout, so thanks for that! How have you found your Anon goggles and lenses? And do you have any idea how they compare to Oakley Prizm? Was originally going to get the flight decks but the Anon M4 really peaked my interest with their lens changing system and integrated MFI!

[@tekoasemeniuk7141]

@@glenadams3768 No problem, its a gorgeous mountain with a good range of difficulty and features. I love my Anons, they're super comfortable. I've heard Oakley's Prizm is the best there is, the lenses are huge and colors pop brightly, but what sold me on Anon was the quickchange lense system and the MFI. I always ride with a facemask and the ability to just pop it on and off of my goggles was so handy. It works like a charm and is just as easy and convenient as advertised. Wouldn't trade them to any other brand. Honestly I don't think you can go wrong with either brand, just depends on which features are more important to you
