i have been told using a black lense would be beneficial to me as the life of the standard lense im using is too short. is this true. armada have told me it makes no difference, but im not sure.

i was informed some time ago that when cutting stainless steel the black type lense, (BLACK MAGIC LENSES). would address my problem. however since then ive been told otherwise.

Go to www.II-VI.com, and ask the CO2 experts your optics questions. We have always used GaAs with AR coating, and had very few problems.
