b"Jimmy and Mark are once again joined by one of the optical engineers here on the team at Vortex, Christian Benson. Christian schools us on all the questions we could muster around the topic of \\u201cLight Transmission\\u201d in the optics we use. What is \\u201cLight transmission\\u201d, how is it measured, what makes an optic better/worse in low light scenarios and all the common misconceptions about light transmission. He also walks us through an optical glass chart and discusses lens design, coatings, size and how all these things play into the systems he and his team engineer. Light is the reason all of our optics work in the first place and it\\u2019s a fascinating thing that, as usual, blows our minds every time we talk about it!\\n\\nAs always, we want to hear your feedback! Let us know if there are any topics you'd like covered on the Vortex Nation\\u2122 podcast by asking us on Instagram @vortexnationpodcast"
