COLOR BRILLIANCE. HIGH DEFINITION OF CONTRAST. INCREASED ATTENTION.

WHAT’S BEHIND THE 5K LENS TECHNOLOGY?

Lens technology is based on the principle to filter the incoming, visible light and optimize the ­perception of color and contrast. Depending on the purpose of a specific lens, those filter ­characteristics are different and are reflected in the transmission curve. The most important factor to define the characteristics of the lens is the lens dye. The formula for this lens dye is the highest brand asset — HEAD’s formula is called 5K.

WHICH LENS IS FOR WHAT?

The most important factor to define the characteristics of the lens is the lens dye. Depending on the formula of the dye, the filter characteristics can be optimized to only focus on specific wavelengths of the visual light spectrum, hence controlling brightness, color brilliance and contrast. The 5K lens options are developed to cover all weather conditions, from sunny to snowy days and all in between.
