Comments Stunning quality lens (this really is on a par with Zeiss, though the lens is slightly smaller). It has a 4-element lens, i.e. four lenses cemented on top of each other, each to correct for distortion and colour - that's better than a triplet, which has 3-elements. This is one that I carry myself, in my pocket, because it is so small an unobtrusive, and I really don't need large lens for looking at very tiny objects. Technical Magnification / lens size in mm: 10X12 Lens material: glass Lens type: 4-element (i.e. a 'triplet' lens contains three lenses on top of each other, this one contains four lenses on top of each other).
