Good anodizing can be flat or more reflective. I have numerous pots and pans that are anodized aluminum, and believe me, they take a far greater beating than a lens will take. The Calphalon and Magnalite pots are more than 20 years old, and some of them are used, and abused, every day, yet their coating is still solid. Good anodizing will last a lifetime.
