Two cameras — three ways to view
The main camera works as a standard desktop magnifier. A discreet flip-up camera adds distance view and mirror view, so one device covers reading, seeing across the room, and looking at yourself.
Near view
Up to 60x magnification
The main 13 megapixel auto-focus camera gives a clear view of books, letters, and your own writing. Magnification depends on the camera angle.
Distance view
Up to 18x at 5 metres
Flip up the second camera to see a board, screen, or presenter across the room.
Mirror view
Camera faces you
Turn the flip-up camera towards yourself for a mirror view.
