Coatings


Top Right Half:
T* multilayer coating: superb transmission, image brightness, brilliance and colour fidelity, rich contrast.

Bottom Left Half:
Poor contrast and low transmission.
As light strikes an air-to-glass surface, a small percentage of light is reflected away to become stray light. This effect is limited when these glass surfaces are treated with a microscopic layer of refractive material, such as magnesium fluoride.

To achieve multicoating, several such refractive layers are applied. When properly applied, coatings can dramatically enhance light transmission properties by delivering more of the available light to the shooter's eye. Zeiss' two proprietary coatings are called T* and MC anti-reflective coatings.
