The heading says that it is 2.5 with a 6x magnifier, but the discription say 1.5 with a 3x ,magnifier. Which is it?

There is a small lens in the bigger lens which provides spot magnification, thus the two magnification powers.

It says"Magnifier 2 5x ...". I believe the 2 is just part of the product name, there is no decimal point. A 4" lens diameter can't be 5x, they just can't make them. I even asked my eye doctor about ordering one from him. So I think the lens is a 1.5x with a 3x inset as the lower information on the page description says,. I sent mine back as the one I bought at a fabric store was better. I think you could find a 2x or 2.5x in a large lens with a 6x inset somewhere else. The around the neck batteries wear out very fast so you need rechargeable batteries for cost reasons.

Good question. The cardboard packaging says 2.5 and 6x. Looking through it and just guessing, I'd say 1.5 and 3x. The magnification is not very strong.

Who knows? All I know is that it works! It magnifies needlepoint very nicely; you won't regret getting it. I use mine all the time. You loosen or tighten the cord that it hangs from around your neck to get the level of magnification you need.

Michael, Not sure exactly how much 1.2 is, but the adjustment is fairly large on the right eyepiece both + and - As a test .. I set the right eyepiece at max (-) and used my reading glasses 1.75's in the eyepiece to bring the field back to normal focus, ie left in focus, right at max - and the 1.75's on the right bring them both back to even focus. They are great binoculars and they perform very well for the weight and compact size. Hope the info helps.

the magnifying part is about 5 inches in diameter. I do a lot of cross stitch with this and it works out perfectly.

Hi Anthony,The correct magnifications are 1.5x, 2x, 2.5x and 3x. The magnifications in the current video needs to be updated. We sincerely apologize for any confusion.

The magnification is 2x. About the size I'm not sure, I guess is 3 x 5 x 1 inches

with out the 3x magnifier I wanted the two dot easy to see . with out the 3x magnifier over two dots hard to see them . yeah with 4 dots and no &#9726;3x magnifier looks like a straight line. I dint want the weight and pay the extra cash. my friend has the 4 dot and 3x magnifier really nice set up. hope this helped you :)

That is the strength of the reading glass. The higher the number the greater the magnification. It is not at all about the size as it will fit your head.

You can only see 2X or 5X magnification. The 2X magnification lens is about 3 3/4" in diameter, and within that is a 3/4" diameter 5X magnification lens. I bought this magnifying glass to read some really small print books I bought, but I find that the 5X lens location makes it troublesome to use for that purpose. I will probably buy one that is rectangular and not round so that I can have more area without the small higher magnification lens.

If you read the product description, it says 1.75 magnification with a bifocal lens of 4X.

The product info says "5 times optical grade." Personally I find only a small area useful for the magnification. I use it primarily for the light. Be advised there is only one way to assemble the components so it is a bit cumbersome when the light is on your right side (it seems to be designed to be on your left).

As others have stated there is no magnification. The 1-4 I believe refers to the MOA size of the dot. 1 MOA for more precise aiming 4 MOA for faster sight aquisition. You probably already know this but 1 MOA is roughly equal to 1 inch at 100 yards, 4 MOA roughly 4 inches so the bigger the dot the more of your target is covered and the less precise your aiming. This is a very generalized explanation. Hope it is helpful.

It is rated as 1:3 of magnification at 55mm. I think that is just fine for some macro, but of course it is not like a 1:1. But anyway, is supposed that anything between 1:5 and 1:1 can be considered macro.

Currently I have the smaller magnifying X lens installed from the 2 shipped lenses. I had to look up distortions to understand your question specifically. I placed a small font magazine about 12inches away from the lens my eyes about 8 to 10inches away. Basically I could read a 3 column veritical text page. The edges all have a slight bow. If it does not work for you you can always ship it back.Hope this helps.Optics. an aberration of a lens or system of lenses in which the magnification of the object varies with the lateral distance from the axis of the lens.

The whole thing is one magnifying lens. There isn't an insert that magnifies more than the rest of the lens. I don't think this magnifies to a power of 5x, but my mother finds the magnification perfect to compensate for her macular degeneration.

Not at all. From the description, it is supposed to help people with imperfect vision. I found it pretty useless as I have 20/20. It further seemed like I was looking down a paper towel roll. I am very interested in their other magnifier which can work with a variety of others. Primary Arms makes one but I haven't seen any side by side comparisons.
