moloch16 Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 Looking for some suggestions on low-light sunglasses. I basically need the polarization without any tint. I don't usually by really expensive sunglasses but may in this case because I really need some low-light polarization. These are for fishing early morning and late evening which is when I do most of my fishing. Thanks!! Quote
Super User Grey Wolf Posted September 29, 2008 Super User Posted September 29, 2008 The tint is what enhances your ability to see in low light conditions. Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted September 29, 2008 Super User Posted September 29, 2008 Gold, Amber, or Yellow works well for low light conditions. I have never heard of a clear polarized lense. Quote
mayassa Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 I use my pan optix clear polarized lenses, they are for riding my bike but work at night and early morning. It also keeps the gnats from landing on my eyeballs on the river Quote
Super User Tin Posted September 29, 2008 Super User Posted September 29, 2008 Gold, Amber, or Yellow works well for low light conditions. I have never heard of a clear polarized lense. Those colors would acctually work better than clear because of how it brightens up the water. Quote
mayassa Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 Walmart has yellow polarized Renegade glasses 9-12 bucks Quote
Bassin_0502 Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 I bought a pair of sunglasses at Costco a few months back. They came with 4 sets of interchangeable lenses: smoke grey for bright light, amber for lower light levels, yellow for overcast and low light, and clear. All are polarized. I think they ran about $35 or so. Quote
atx_newbie Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 Definitely amber lenses, they amplify light, so they work a lot better in low light. I discovered that playing paintball a long time ago. I always had a hard time playing at indoor fields because the light wasn't very good, then by mistake I picked up someone else's mask that had an amber lens. All of the sudden I could see gnats from 150 yards. Quote
