Regular magnifying glasses have curved surfaces, you know, like in eyeglasses, binoculars and telescopes. To make a magnifier this size (7 inches x 4.5 inches) a regular glass lens would have to be very thick because of the curvature which would make it very expensive and very heavy. The good news is that through the wonderful knowledge of mathematics and optics technology mankind has developed an alternative. Fresnel lenses are thin, flat and therefore lightweight and inexpensive making flat lens devices practical for thousands of applications. But such a lens is composed of a series of narrow concentric rings, each of which magnify a part of the image, and those sections collectively provide the whole field of view. That's inherent to the technology. Wish as you might that someone could make "one of these" without those lines, it won't happen because math is math and optics is optics. Most people find the fresnel rings to be a minor issue in view of the significant, unique advantages these devices provide.
Could someone do a video with this magnifier with a REGULAR book, small to medium to large sized instead of a NEWSPAPER? We don't all read only newspapers, I am looking for a large magnifier that will cover the pages of books enough so that I don't have to move my hand back and forth the entire time and lose sight of the page and pictures.
