I searched for a loupe, but could only locate jewellers' ones. I found the AP Magnifying Loupe whilst browsing AW's site. A competitive price and very suitable for the job. MG.
Super handy to have around. Use it all the time for checking negs and prints. Good value for money too!!
A bit redundant now that we have scanners and computer but who cares!! It's amazing to go 'old school' and look at the images in the flesh. This loupe really helps bring the slides to life. I no longer have to quint as I can now enjoy the full image and really see all the little details.
When viewing my negs on a lighted, I struggled to find the sharpness I was expecting - the image seemed distorted. When I compared it to an old linen tester, the linen tester seemed a lot clearer. I put it down to the way my varifocal glasses interacted with the magnifier's lens. I've upgraded my linen tester instead, and will be selling the AP magnifier on eBay.
Does what it needs to do.
All good
A great bit of kit to have, both, in the darkroom and field.
Lets in enough light to comfortably view 35mm contact sheets
Easy to use and good value too
Great bit of kit, helps to identify which neg I'm going to try and print in the darkroom. With 8x magnification it does the trick 👍
I've been really impressed with how good this is. When paired with a light table, it's really easy and clear to review negatives. Does exactly what I needed it to do!
This really helps in checking out fine detail on negs prior to digitising....magnifies sufficiently to see what's in focus
Does it need to be used with a lightbox or does it have a light? Thank you
It doesn't have a light - so yes you'll need an external source like a lightbox
Thanks - Paul
