Does the glass have magnification?

Yes it has the same magnification and focal length as a Professional Welch Allyn Otoscope. We used their lens as our prototype when deciding on the optimal magnification and focal length for ear exams

I wasn't sure so I used it to read fine print and it definitely does have magnification.

It depends how clear you are looking to see. It is definitely a toy, not meant for serious chemists. To give you an example my 6 year old daughter put a strand of hair under the scope, and yes it magnifies it, but not enough to make the strand of hair look like anything other than a strand of hair. The lowest magnification is the only one that we were able to focus with. Its a great toy, perfect for my little one.

No it is a 2X magnification with a 5X bifocal area ( about the size of a half dollar) for fine detail

No, it does not, but it does provide infinity focus and a glass element is unnecessary and would degrade the image anyway.

I don't notice a lot of magnification, just helps me see image a lot better outside. Hope this helps

No, but the magnifier is no longer available. If you've found some, please let me know where!

No. I'm still figuring the feature to correct glass reflection. Optical zoom is great.

Hi, it does have magnification, but through the included software (via download). It's a digital zoom. So you do lose some quality. To attach, you need to remove the existing eye piece. There is a very small screw holding it. Unscrew that and then pull out. For my microscope, I did not need any of the included adapters. Note installation may be different if you have a different model microscope. Hope this helps.

No magnification. I sent mine back. You can get dual zone magnification for $30 or so from other vendors.

I don't know the magnification, I looked on the web-site, and it wasn't there. I bought it for my husband to read maps, his globe, and other things. He says it is good for that, plenty strong. I looked through it at some very small print, with my glasses off and I could make it out. It's a very nice gift, or for yourself...

In this item no. It was never shown to me with glass. It works very well as is.

I really don't know...but I doubt it. It magnifies somewhat but has lines in it.

It does, but it is not that good of a mount. You will end up needing an aftermarket mount. The magnifier itself is great and worth the price.

i believe magnification is adjustable. to activate this feature you "calibrate" the scope. instructions for this come with it and are not difficult to follow.

No. it only magnifies mid-range objects. If you put out your hands at arms length you can see enhanced details of lines on the palm of your hands. These glasses are not intended for reading. If you want to see a live demo/display i recommend you visit a Best Buy to test it out before you purchase it on Amazon

no, to do what you want you would need a telescope with a computer drive and software, as others have said you can see an object thrugh the view finder but no magnification. Also, my unit is very sensitive to magnetic interference which has required me to leave my deck and go out into the yard away from the house and garage.

No magnification, they're basically just lightly shaded glasses. Almost like really weak sunglasses.
