2. Magnification - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnification

   The maximum angular magnification (compared to the naked eye) of a magnifying glass depends on how the glass and the object are held, relative to the eye. If the lens is held at a distance from the object such that its front focal point is on the object being viewed, the relaxed eye (focused to infinity) can view the image with angular ...

3. Magnifying glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnifying_glass

   Magnifying glass on an arm lamp. The magnification of a magnifying glass depends upon where it is placed between the user's eye and the object being viewed, and the total distance between them. The magnifying power is equivalent to angular magnification (this should not be confused with optical power, which is a different

4. Magnifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnifier

   A magnifier is a device used for magnification. Magnifier can also refer to: Magnifying glass, an optical device for magnification; Screen magnifier, software that magnifies part of a computer screen Magnifier (Windows), a screen magnifier for Microsoft Windows; Magnifier (iOS), a magnifying glass app for iOS; Magnifier, a magnifying glass app ...

5. Loupe - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loupe

   Analog photographers use loupes to review, edit or analyze negatives and slides on a light table. Typical magnifications for viewing slides full-frame depend on image format; 35 mm frames (24×36 mm slides to 38×38 mm superslides) are best viewed at ca. 5×, while ca. 3× is optimal for viewing medium format slides (6×4.5 cm / 6×6 cm / 6×7 cm).

6. Coddington magnifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coddington_magnifier

   A Coddington magnifier is a magnifying glass consisting of a single very thick lens with a central deep groove diaphragm at the equator, thus limiting the rays to those close to the axis, which minimizes spherical aberration. This allows for greater magnification than a conventional magnifying glass, typically 10× up to 20×. Most single lens ...

7. Optical power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_power

   In optics, optical power (also referred to as dioptric power, refractive power, focusing power, or convergence power) is the degree to which a lens, mirror, or other optical system converges or diverges light. It is equal to the reciprocal of the focal length of the device: P = 1/f. [1] High optical power corresponds to short focal length.
