I like to know about the magnification power of this set. It is 300 times, 400 times, 3 times. I am not asking the focal lenght the magnification pow

The magnification is found by dividing the focal length of the objective lens (400mm) by the focal length of the eyepiece. The telescope comes with two eyepiece lenses, 4mm and 20mm, so with the first one should have a magnification of 100x and with the second,20x. I am not making any comment on the quality of the image produced here. Brian Oliver. Brian Oliver.

Magnification not very good.it is useful for children to wach moon only. Thank you

The magnification depends on the eyepiece used. This is a low end telescope, so image quality deteriorates at higher magnification (shorter focal length eyepiece) The maker claims 300X magnification using the supplied 3x Barlow; I find that claim laughable. Keep in mind that, as with any Astronomical Telescope, the image will be inverted (upside down, left to right reversed) unless you use an erecting diagonal.

Hello Joy, The magnification of this product is 2X. Complete information about it can be found at the following URL: http://www.opticsplanet.com/carson-magnifold-lighted-magnifier-mj50.html If you need more magnification, try the more compact 5X magnification "Carson 5x MiniBrite LED Lighted Slide-Out Aspheric Magnifier with Protective Sleeve (PO-55)" Also sold by Amazon. I own both of them and use them both of them everyday, and they are each extremely useful! I hope this is helpful to you! Matt K

The first number is the magnification and the second number is the lens diameter. The larger the numbers the more magnification and light gathering potential.

I don't know. It was purchased for my 79 ur old mother who has cataracts and macular degeneration. She doesn't use the magnifier much, but she uses the light everyday to work her crossword puzzles.

I turned my light on and adjusted it to see. I am not an expert but can only tell you what I do see when I adjust the lighted magnifying glass to different distances and it appears to magnify the specific items one focuses on to three times larger. Bear in mind I already wear glasses so this is what I see wearing my glasses and I do realize that it is different under different circumstances and different distances. What is important to me is that I can adjust the distant to what is helpful and applicable to my sight. At the same time I can only assume it will be the same for others

No, there is no magnification. I agree with the previous answer. Magnification would be negative on this product. I am very happy with it the way it is.

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.

These numbers refer to the strength (magnification) of the lenses. Higher numbers magnify more.

I believe so it should be 3-9 magnification with a 40mm objective. With a 30x30 field of view.@100yrds

The level of magnification is about 2x. Remember that this is just a cheap alternative to Zacuto.

I'm not sure of the magnification, but my mother (who is the one who uses the lamp) says it looks like the print is twice as large. Due to her wet age-related macular degeneration, without this lamp she had to use a hand-held magnifying glass and scan it across the page.....very tiring for her! This lamp allows her to read an entire page comfortably. She loves to read again!They list the lamp as having a 3-diopter lens. I Googled diopter vs. magnification, and multiple websites say a 3-diopter lens supposedly magnifies something 75%. Not sure if other variables come into play, but this lens seems to do the job wonderfully for my mother.

Sorry it took me so long to respond. I left it at work! The diameter of larger part is approximately 4 inches. The smaller greater magnification part just under an inch. Still working great!

Your missing out on 300 bucks if you buy this thing. Plus the price of replacing the batteries every five minutes. But to answer your question, it is 6x magnification

It has a pretty good image quality when using a 2x Barlow attachment. I have one. But of course higher magnification with the zoom eyepiece becomes a little distorted not too bad. For the price you won't be disappointed. I use it a lot. Hope this helps.

You need to find the aperture of your scope. The typical maximum magnification of any scope is 50-60x this number. So if your aperture is 2.4", then the maximum magnification is somewhere between 120x-142x. For example, a 20 mm eyepiece used on a 1000 mm focal-length telescope would yield a power of 50x (1000/20 = 50) and a 10 mm eyepiece used on the same instrument would yield a power of 100x (1000/10 = 100).

I did not save the box, and the Magnifer itself doesn't say what the magnification is. I would hazard the guess that it is 2X or 3X, with greater magnification in a small spot within the larger glass. Whatever the magnification is, I find it to be what I need for doing beading work...but I am nearsighted and so don't need much correction to do close-up work. Someone who is farsighted, or who uses reading glasses, might need something stronger. I hope this helps!
