"Frameless" Masks --- Field of Vision???

[paulwlee]

I have the Oceanic Shadow and it is really nice. I originally got one as a backup to keep in my drysuit pocket, but liked it a lot so got another one to replace my main mask that was starting to fall apart.

I also took a look at the Scubapro frameless, but liked the Oceanic better. I think the Oceanic has lower volume, although I'm not completely sure. The Mini Shadow has even lower volume, but it probably also has less vertical field of view.

As for fogging, my first one had the fogging problem, but when I got the other one, I scrubbed it real good with toothpaste/toothbrush and it didn't fog. I guess I needed to use the toothbrush on it as well, not just the toothpaste, as I did with the first one.

Yes. At least that is what I type to shorten the name.

When you guys refer to the "SP" mask, are you refering to the Scuba Pro? :06:

I tried one for a while and really liked the field of vision. The problem was the nose pocket is angle up excessively and it pushed up on the bottom of my nose (btw, my nose isn't big) and gave me a headache. I stopped using it because of that and went to the SP Framless. I have found several people have had the same problem. It's still all about fit when you need to choose a mask.

I just purchased a Cressi Big Eyes mask, very nice field of view, I can actually see my BC , also like the low volume aspect also.
