Looking for recommendations for a high quality loop. I currently have a Eschenbach 5x. Great glass. Looking for maybe a combo or just something stronger.

If you want the best, I would recommend Zeiss 3.6.9... Zeiss lens are incredible.. no edge distortion, clarity and always quality. Cheers, RickO
Oh, and a reputable seller. I’ve read on here about knock offs
How about here...https://www.ebay.com/bhp/zeiss-loupe... there are others... google is your friend... Cheers, RickO
I like old school (in 5x)

I like the HE Harris wide field - you can get in 10x or 16x for about $15. I have a tendency to 'misplace' them so don't want to pay big bucks for small optics
Thanks for the info
Thanks for the links !!!
There has been many threads on this topic over the last few years. Suggest that you do a search here. Both Zeiss and Eschenbach make 3X+6X=9X models that are quite nice but they are both fairly expensive at over a hundred dollars each. Sometimes you can find used ones on eBay and a more reasonable price. For less money Bausch and Lomb makes some nice magnifiers.

All the suggestions above of the type of loupe to use are all great. but I love my scope I attach to my laptop. Very precise and inexpensive! I'd check it out.
$44

It's fairly reasonable and comes with a neck strap. Apparently this site is the US distributor (if that's really true).

I have a few and like them all. Use the Zeiss the most though.

I have a BelOMO Triplet 10x. I love it. Its very well made. They are made in Belarus. Wherever that is. It comes with an awesome detachable neck lanyard made of heavy duty nylon. Just a very dependable, nice looking, solid loupe. I recommend them. As good as anything I have ever used.Look them up on Ebay or at their website here https://belomostore.com/
I don't know? If you have the right cable insert, the HDMI?

I also have a magnifying glass app on my phone and a digital microscope. I rely on the Hastings triplet the most and use the digital scope for photographs.
