Igchris,

Reading the below statement on the Leopold, can you break it down in laymen terms?

"The Xtended Twilight Lens System places extra emphasis on matching coatings to glass indices to achieve the best possible transmission of the blue/violet spectrum, without sacrificing the color balanced light transmission across the visual spectrum of the Index Matched Lens System"

I recall a post by you in the where you said Leopold coats their glass for the spectrum of light, 570-590nm which is yellow red light. Meopta coats for 380-570nm (blue green spectrum). Does that hold true with the Leopold description above?

TIA

I should have said most instead of generalizing. But yes their xtended twilight coatings are meant to transmit the lower wavelengths better.

Off the top of my head I believe in their hunting line vx3/3L and vx6 utilize that system.
