 2010-03-17 Slide viewer on the cheap! This a low tech little gadget that don't take up a lot of space and it works! |
 2010-03-06 Better then a Hoodman Dedicated LCD Loupe I had a Hoodman camera LCD loupe Hoodman H-LPP3 HoodLoupe 3.0 Professional 3-Inch Screen Loupe, but now use a Pana-vue #3 Slide Viewer instead. To make a LCD loupe the slide viewer would need be modified with a saw to remove the slide holder part. I belong to a camera club in suburban Maryland Washington DC (NBCC), many of our other members now also this as a camera loupe solution. The Pana-vue is smaller and more compact then the Hoodman; remember a LCD loupe will typically be kept handy by storing in a pocket when not in use. While "on a shoot", having a durable compact item in my pocket is preferable to a fragile bulky one. |
 2010-02-17 slide viewer The produce is exactly as described and what I expected it to be. It was shipped promptly and I received it before I expected. |
 2010-02-05 Good for digitalizing slides I needed a slide viewer to make digital copies of my favorite slides. Could have bought a special adaptor for my Nikon Coolpix 990 for $50 or so, but decided to give this a try. It works very well; I got excellent results with it.
The only drawback is that although it precisely covers my lens, it cannot be fastened onto it like the special adaptor would have, so I have to hold it firm with my left hand while holding the camera with my right, but it can be done. I'm happy with it. |
 2010-02-05 slide viewer It doesn't cost much but is very adequate if you are not using it long term or for great details from the slides you are viewing. The problem is the shipping and handling costs more than the viewer! |
