SmartLux Magnifier from Eschenbach
Electronic video magnifiers are not inexpensive and many times cumbersome pieces of equipment for the tabletop. Now from Eschenbach, the SmartLux Digital handheld video magnifier #1650-1 is a revolutionary, portable device that has a multitude of features, and all for a very economical price.
The large 5" LCD TFT display provides 5x, 7x, 9x, or 12x magnification (even less when used in hand-held mode) along with 5 different viewing modes that include full color, black on white, white on black, black on yellow, and yellow on black. Illumination is provided by 2 hi-tech SMD LEDs and the tactile control buttons are easy to understand and use. Images can be captured and up to 20 can be stored.
The SmartLux Digital features a generous depth of focus and includes a stand that, when placed in its fully extended position, is ideal for reading. When placed in its half-extended position, it is ideal for writing. The two small SMD-LEDs on the underside of the device can be switched off when viewing other back lit displays, such as cell phones, to avoid screen glare.
The screen is hard-coated for protection and is made with an additional anti-glare layer of film. The device is completely portable at a lightweight of 7.8 ounces and fits in a purse or large pocket. Simple control buttons are symbolically marked and there are only 3 to learn: On/Off, Magnification setting, and the Contrast Mode. There is a 2-year warranty.
There is an automatic shut-off feature that will activate between 2 and 5 minutes of non use to save battery time. The SmartLux Digital is ideal for anyone who is visually impaired and wants an economical, portable video magnifier!
