The Compact 8 offers brilliant image quality, allowing you to read magnified text (up to 30×) in high contrast colours and view objects from a short distance. The generous eight-inch touchscreen provides maximum overview by letting you fit more text on the screen.

Optolec's Dynamic Contrast feature enhances the contrast of similar colours to provide sharper, clearer, and more defined images. In some cases, making undetectable text visible again!

It's easy to zoom in and out of your targeted live view and swipe (pan) in all directions to read and magnify this larger field of view – all without physically moving the device. And by folding out the built-in reading stand, the Compact 8 is ideally positioned at a comfortable reading/viewing angle – no need to hunch over your reading matter.

You can also use the Compact 8 to view objects or text from a short distance, for example, a café menu or bus timetable. Use the magnifier in live-view or snap a picture and magnify and pan the displayed image as needed.
