The specimen
Lens comparison
The same seven scenes, one locked exposure. This one is loaded against Prizm Road.
How brightness is shown. Every lens was shot at one locked exposure set on the bare sensor, so True exposure is the real light transmission. Your eye adapts, so a dark lens never looks that dark in life: Eye adapted raises each image by its measured transmission (perceived = transmission^0.5). Colour only normalises every lens to the same brightness to isolate the tint.

What it is
A strong green mirror on the outside that does not carry through. Behind the lens it is a clean pink mauve, lighter and more magenta than Road, which surprises most people who have only seen the exterior.
