- Transitioning back to normal takes considerably longer. By my count, about 2.5 minutes (see quote…)
- Function “ok” as shades, but my shares definately provide better reduction in glare
- Price for this feature on lenses is reasonable ($100 CAD), considering custom tinted glasses would cost about the same lens wise.
- Personally, while a cool feature, I would not get transitions on my lenses again. I’ll stick with actual shades next time.
The end.
