Portable magnifiers are useful tools, and many of us have one or two we keep handy around the house. They’re often great for short-term jobs, like checking medications or reading a label. But there are some things that they’re not as good at - things like writing a letter to a friend, reading a magazine, or doing the crossword. For those tasks we need a tool that has a much wider field of view, like the whole page of a magazine or an entire sheet of notepaper. For many people, that tool is a Desktop Digital Magnifier.
Desktop Digital Magnifiers, sometimes called CCTVs or electronic magnifiers, can have many features and come in a lot of sizes, but they’re all designed the same way - they have a camera connected to a video screen. The camera records video, and the screen displays the video. It’s that simple.
