Here you go, you can clearly see reflection of objects on the blue Dillons as well.

Taken from Mariener’s instagram, you’ll see their silver lens is much more matte in appearance than their blue or red lenses.

I can see the damn building structures in the reflection and they’re probably 200-250 meters away hahaha !!!

That’s not matte, dude...

You’re never going to convince me that these lenses are matte, when you can clearly see reflections in the lenses...

I can see cars from my Dillons that are 200 meters away. When you get your blue, you will see what I mean. I've cut a Dillon lens in half, it has 3 layers to it - NIR filter sandwiched between two layers of CR-39. When you have a blue NIR filter, it gives more reflection because the plastic CR-39 is able to reflect more images which is why everything appears less matte.

The blue Dillons look matte when there is no sunlight reflecting off of them.

Two entirely different angles =\= comparison.

No way...

As a seasoned photographer, I can tell you both pictures are using open shade lighting....

Every Dillon lens looks matte when the sun hits it....

**nevermind

Put your blues on, look upnin the sky and take a picture....

Thank you, this is what I've been saying. At the right angles, it looks matte. I'm glad you're admitting it.

Good angle - now take it straight ahead...

Same reflection, buddy...that’s what the hand was cupping the lens for. I didn’t want to give everybody a close up of my face, LOL. You'll notice in the lens where light isn't hitting - it looks completely matte. I can go outside for you, if you'd like and take a picture of the Dillon Blue NIR and it would be the same result for reflections. It just isn't as good at being matte as the other lenses Dillon offers for the reasons I've explained.
