Magnifier's

I was looking into this myself recently and got a Ruper off eBay after looking at posts on here, not cheap but it is quality and you have 3 lenses in one that you can stack up for higher magnification.

Hi gents

After trying various magnifiers the one that suits me best is as follows.  The LED light makes a big difference for me at least. 
 

Not cheap but good.

 I would advise against any LED or any harsh light when looking at things close up. In an old life I had to use a hand lens everyday, natural light every time, if you could

I have an eschenbach but wouldn't say it's any better than my belomo loupe..  Belomo are quite cheap and of decent quality.

Your not getting a Schneider Gemology Pro or Swiss Axe Triple hawk or even Zeiss quality but it's not that far off and a lot cheaper.  Certainly not a tenth of the image quality  even though it's easily something like a tenth of the price or less.
