We offer a choice of two optical quality Auto Focus magnifiers: the autofocus dome magnifier shown below and the autofocus ruler magnifier for transcribing.
The Brightfield Dome autofocus magnifier
The Brightfield Dome auto focus magnifier gives a magnification of approx. four times actual size. It sits on your document and draws in the natural ambient light, illuminating and magnifying text or symbols within your study area.
The image you see is clear and undistorted, allowing you to decipher difficult-to-read words and phrases on census documents, wills and parish registers. Ideal for researching old photographs.
It also looks attractive and doubles as a paperweight and desk accessory. To keep it in perfect condition, each autofocus dome magnifier comes with a black velvet drawstring pouch and storage box.
