This foldout magnifier has three 30mm (1.25 inch) 5X glass lenses for up to 15X magnification, enough to inspect & identify quality control problems & more; only $5.95.
This company is involved in producing advanced materials & was looking for a suitable promotional product for branding. See below in Related Products for printing options (not included in the cost of the magnifier).
If you need to see even greater detail our 10X 23mm loupe, in conjunction with a cell phone camera, can help create an image record for future analysis.
You can of course use this magnifier to read find print but regular hand magnifiers are generally enough for book & maps. For more info, see our blog: What Magnifying Glass Do I Need for Reading?

No complaints for the price! It produces clear images easily. The plastic seems durable enough, but I have not tested it. The only improvement I would like to see is some sort of attachment point for a lanyard or cord. I have used it to examine some of the Brood X cicadas and various other insects and plants. Very helpful for the curious biologist though you won't be able to see cells unless they are abnormally large. Also, Indigo Instruments has great customer service!

Thanks for the review & feedback. We haven't been able to get a version with both a loop to attach a lanyard & a flat surface to allowing branding (printing).
Our Phone Camera Dissecting Microscope shows a close up of a fly but we recommend the 10X 23mm for its better depth of field. It might also allow you to see cells such as leaf stomata or cork.

Just what I was looking for. My grandkids are using them to examine bugs and flower parts in their yard.

Super-handy to have. I should have read closely that these are plastic, not metal, but that's on me. No complaints about the product.

Product exactly as pictured and described. Hand lens works well, I can see things I've never seen before! Very satisfied and would gladly order again!
