The lens is made from real glass or plastic?

It's glass. From the description on the Fenix website: "Toughened ultra-clear glass lens with anti-reflective coating".

I'm not willing to try to scratch it. My guess is, it's plastic. I'm very pleased with it.

Hi, The lens is made of high-quality magnifying lens. The size is equal to INR 1 Rupee coin, that is not very large.

It's glass. I really dig this filter. It's light, but works well. It allows for a lot more flexibility during the day in terms of what aperture you wanna use and it can also be useful for cinematic effects like a white out, or dip to black.

The lens is molded optical plastic. This makes the magnifier lighter. The only down side is that the lens will scratch easier. But you should be careful with any optical device!

It is a metal or hard teflon type material. Fits well, though I bought a HOYA 58mm uv lens and the fit is not good at all.When you eventually get it on you dont want to keep taking it off. I would go to a regular camera store with my camera next time, maybe a bit more expensive but you can see what you are getting.

It is plastic, but of very bad quality. after few uses it became all cloudy.

The lenses are plastic. They make a huge difference when the original lenses are almost 20 years old.

The glasses are plastic but very nice! I gave them as Christmas gifts to a couple of friends.

Glass lens, glass body. Did come with an adapter pigtail from standard sealed beam to the Hella bulb.

The barrel of this lens is metal, and lenses are of specialized glass. This is a seriously dense and heavy piece of professional hardware. Were it not for the stellar output, I would hate to carry this monster around for hours. Go to flickr and check the pictures out.

this is made of plastic. nicely reflective, though, and lighter and less breakable than glass.

Hi Leslie. It's not glass, but a very good kind of acrylic or plastic (very clear). The image quality is very good indeed. In my case 3X Magnification is perfect (I tried 2X and 5X and none were the right ones). Additionally the size of the lens is really good (not too big and not too small)The only thing I don't like much is the way it opens. But I can't say anything bad about the image quality. Hope this helps! If any other doubt, just ask :)

Dont buy this thing.. lens is plastic and thinner just melts the lense..should be glass.... as for your question..yes its locking type..

Yes there is but I would get a glass one instead of this plastic one. What you look at might not be as clear as a lens made of glass.

This filter is made of plastic. I have used it in various settings and am impressed so far with the results considering the price.

It is plastic. For the price I am happy. Even with a long lens the locks hold. It would not be suitable for a professional.

The lenses appear to be glass, the case is plastic.I will add that this has been a very worthwhile addition for night spotting out to 100 yards.
