backcountry.com says its high intensity amber but i think it's high intensity persimmon....

Any help or suggestions are appreciated and rewarded +k; as soon as someone can tell me 100% certain what lens tint this is -> /end thread...

I have a H.I Persimmon Lens and I love it, Great all-around lens, great for cloudy, misty days, or even at night. Decent for bright days but not great. For cloudy days, h.i. persimmon, titanium clear, yellow, and vr50 are the best

persimmon is a good do anything lense, if you dont want to buy multiple lenses. lenses are rediculous in price imo.
