Transition lenses contain photochromic molecules that darken when exposed to UV light, and become lighter when the UV light diminishes. This allows the lenses to automatically adjust to different lighting conditions, providing both clear vision indoors and UV protection outdoors.

Digital lens with a Canon AE?

It would depend on the type of lens mount. Generally speaking, it would probably not work too well. The AE uses full-aperture TTL metering, and its mechanism for manipulating the diaphragm of the lens is not likely to work with the "digital" lens, although that is not a sure thing. Try to gently mate the lens and body. If the lens will mount, shoot a roll of film and see how it goes.
