Note: There is a little bit of overlap in the uses of the different lenses. The 2.0 inch
lens is a very good general purpose lens and is well suited for most applications.
The optional lenses are more suited to specific applications where the work being
done is of a more specialized nature.
In addition to the three standard lenses pictured above (available for the EX models
only), Epilog also offers a 4.0 inch lens for the EX models. The 4.0 inch lens is a
very specialized lens that is usually reserved for cutting thicker acrylic. Many users
feel that the greater depth of field that the 4.0 inch lens provides enhances the look of
the sides of the acrylic. The 4.0 inch lens is also used for engraving applications
where the engraving is being done at the bottom of a deep cavity, like the bottom of a
bowl or on the inside of a shadow box that has tall sides.
