what is 1 x magnification? normal mirror?
1363947
One side is like a regular mirror. The 1x means one magnification greater than a normal mirror. The other side I chose by going to the store and looking at various magnifications. I have poor vision (without my glasses) and it brings things so much closer. I wanted to be able to put on makeup on without my glasses. I found the 7x was the best without distorting the image. I hope this helps you.

Yes, 1X is a regular mirror and the other side is very magnified. You can see every pore in your face lol.

I believe 1X will provide slight magnification beyond what you see in a regular mirror. The mirror I ordered has a 7X magnification on the other side and it is wonderful!

Yes, one side is magnified and the other is not. However, the product description is not correct, it is only 9 inches tall not 15.I did keep the mirror because it does have a clear view and works well for what I needed. Hope tis helps.

Magnification is 3x only. To view 1x, just flip the hinged eyepiece up. There is a bottom plate it comes with to attach to the camera's tripod socket. The viewer has a tab that slides into this mount and is secured in place with a thumb screw. Loosen the screw, it slides off leaving the mounting plate in place. I leave the plate on my camera, it does not interfere with anything. You can see the whole image at once when you look at it at 3x. You may have to move your eye around to see every corner, but it would have to be a smaller magnification factor to see the whole image at once, which would defeat the purpose of what this viewer does.

The mirror does not magnify. The size can be found under the Product Details, and it is 0.9 x 7 x 9.2 inches.

Hello Joy, The magnification of this product is 2X. Complete information about it can be found at the following URL: http://www.opticsplanet.com/carson-magnifold-lighted-magnifier-mj50.html If you need more magnification, try the more compact 5X magnification "Carson 5x MiniBrite LED Lighted Slide-Out Aspheric Magnifier with Protective Sleeve (PO-55)" Also sold by Amazon. I own both of them and use them both of them everyday, and they are each extremely useful! I hope this is helpful to you! Matt K

Yes. One side is regular (not magnified) and the other is magnified 12 times for a very up close view. It's a great mirror!

The level of magnification is about 2x. Remember that this is just a cheap alternative to Zacuto.

Standard Gunnar glasses have a +1.2 magnification to them, per their website:http://www.gunnars.com/gunnars-vs-cheap-alternatives/

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...

No, it is not but I find it hasn't been a problem. It is very clear and large enough to compensate for the lack of magnification. I have a smaller portable mirror I keep in my backpack that has a 8x magnification & a normal 1:1 mirror.

There is no setting on the lens or camera to make it 1:1. At the closest distance, I think the magnification is even larger than 1:1. If you really want 1:1 magnification, you can figure it out by taking a photo of a tape measure and compare with the picture on the sensor (scaled to the LCD monitor). If you want, you can take a look at my Facebook page: peter mioduszewski....The sensor of mft is 18 mm x 13.5 mm, if you take the picture of a 10 mm object (tape measure), it has to be 10 mm on the sensor. That is 1:1 in the strict sense. If you want 1:1, the object can not be bigger than the sensor. There is no setting on the lens or camera to make it 1:1.

I think the magnification is 3x. It is good, the company just needs to improve the diopter.

It is a 3-X optical magnifier. there's supposed to be a 5-X too, but I haven't been able to find one. It does have a 5x bubble but it tends to be a distraction.

This is a great mirror. I've owned several of this model mirror with different magnifications. Well made.
