LOMO MASK'S

In this issue I continue my recent theme of bringing to your attention, great high quality products that are sold at low, reasonable prices.

Lomo are a Glasgow based firm Specialising in water sports gear and wetsuits. They have been around for a few years now and I have reviewed a few of their products. In fact it would be safe to say the produce my favourite piece of kit! My bright yellow 7mm dive hood which will keep me warm right through the winter. They have now added a range of mask’s to their range of dive kit. There is a range of around 8 masks starting at a £18 price tag and this is for a mask with a high quality silicone skirt, supplied in a nice strong mask box! The vast majority of masks are priced around £20 with only 1 the Alumino Mask topping £32. Top of the range and less than half the price of similar mask’s from the big name producers.

I was sent over 2 masks to try out here is how I found them.-

1) The black mask –

NAME:- TECHNO

PRICE:- £25

I was drawn to this mask because of its black silicone skirt; I prefer this when working with the camera as it reduces all those reflections in shallow water. This one’s frame has an interesting design and it certainly fitted my face well, the skirt made a great seal. Buckles and straps are fairly standard and are easy to use.

2) The clear mask-

NAME:- NITRO

PRICE:- £23

This one came with a clear skirt and it bore a striking resemblance to my Cressi Sub Matrix Mask. The feel of the silicone skirt was very similar. In fact the only clear difference was that I paid twice as much for the matrix. Once again the straps and buckles are standard and easy to use.

Choosing a dive mask is a matter of personal choice as everybody’s face is different. All I can say is the two above masks fitted my face like limpet mines and the nose pockets comfortably encased my nose.

If you are in the market for a new mask I would recommend you take a look at LOMO’s website as the masks are all on clear display there, or if you are based in Glasgow pop in and see the guy’s.
