      Magnification indicates how much closer an object appears. A magnifier with 10x magnification makes an object appear 10 times larger than with the naked eye. A magnifier with 20x magnification therefore magnifies an object twice as much as a 10x magnifier. However, a magnifier with 20x magnification often has a smaller field of view and more distortion.

      For field observations of plants, insects, or fungi, magnifiers with 10x to 20x magnification are ideal. A 10x triplet magnifier is popular due to its sharp image quality and minimal distortion. For detecting insects or small details, 20x is recommended. The table below can be used as a guide. However, the final decision remains entirely dependent on personal preference.

      There are different types of magnifiers. You can choose a magnifier without illumination, but you can also choose one with LED lighting. A magnifier with LED lighting provides extra clarity in low light or in dark places (such as shady areas). Magnifiers without LED are often more compact and lighter, but are therefore less suitable in twilight or cloudy conditions. For fieldwork, a magnifier with LED can be a practical addition.

      A magnifier with UV light can be useful for detecting organisms or substances that fluoresce. These include fungi, minerals, or insect spores. These UV magnifiers are ideal for specialists in biology, ecology, or entomology.
       
      Veldshop also offers magnifiers with UV and LED. This allows you to use your magnifier in dark places and simultaneously detect fungi and other spores.

      Magnifiers have many designations. The four most important ones are listed above and are: folding magnifier, standing loupe, doublet, and triplet. But what do these designations mean? Below, we will briefly explain these four topics.
       
      Folding Magnifier: A Folding Magnifier is foldable and compact. This compactness makes it convenient for field use.
      Standing Loupe: A Standing Loupe is placed on an object or surface. This is often done in combination with a stand/tripod.
      Doublet: A doublet is a magnifier with two lens elements. Because it has two lens elements, it provides better image quality.
      Triplet: A triplet is a magnifier with three lens elements. This provides a clear, sharp, and colorful image. A triplet is often brighter and sharper than a doublet. A triplet is often the best choice for precision work.
