Loupe/Magnification Recommendations?
 
I've looked through a few threads, but didn't see a recent one. With options and tech constantly changing, I figured I'd throw the question out again.

What loupes/magnifiers/microscopes do you personally use or recommend?

What would you consider the bare minimum magnification level to really inspect ink on something like a T206 / lithograph? I've seen some people say 10x is enough for them, some say 100x... that's a bit of a difference.

Any specific add-ons you think are necessary nowadays? e.g. UV light, black light, attachments for phones/cameras, USB.

Appreciate any tips.

I really love this. Need a separate UV light, but definitely should have one of those as well.
