Recommendations for a magnifying glass
 
Hey guys,

I have a couple magnifiers (a Bausch and Lomb 10 x loupe and a 2" hand held), but I am looking for a quality magnifying glass to look at my cards, something with a larger viewing area (needs to be 10 x).

Do any of you use a handheld magnifying glass? And if so, where did you get it? Seems the ones I find on Amazon or Ebay have cheap optics.

Thank you!

I haven't seen many large magnifiers at 10x. And I can't think of any nice ones.
I use a nice 10x but it's tiny, and a slightly larger 40x folding magnifier.

It's expensive, but there's always this gizmo.

Thank you, Steve. Ya, $300 is a little more than I'm looking to spend on this. I could buy a nice Ted Williams with that money! ;)
