ADOX was founded in 1860 as the world's first photochemical factory. Over the next several decades, it became one of the leading film producers in Europe. Today, ADOX films, papers, and chemistry are proudly manufactured in Germany by an incredibly passionate team of film photography enthusiasts. 

The ADOX Precision Loupe 10x is the perfect tool for the detail-oriented analog photography enthusiast. It features high quality coated glass elements (3 elements in two groups) for the best possible image quality all the way to the edges of the large covering area. A knurled diopter compensation ring allows the user to adjust the loupe to their vision. 

For non-backlit photographic materials like contact prints, a built-in LED ring light is built into the housing of the loupe. It is powered by four user-changeable watch batteries. The base has a removable micrometric scale (1/10th of a mm). 

The 10x magnification is enough to effectively judge sharpness and grain of backlit negatives or the focus on the ground glass of a field camera without the significant cropping of loupes intended for jewelry or watches. A leather carrying case is included for safe transportation.

It’s solidly built and comfortable to hold for a few minutes at a time, plus the clarity makes me trust what I’m seeing. Only wish it came with a small po

Glass is sharp edge to edge, and the focus ring turns smoothly enough that I can dial in on tiny film grain without fiddling. I’ve been using it to inspect negatives before scanning, and it makes spotting dust and scratches way easier than my old jeweler’s loop.

Amelia U. ★★★★★

The glass is crisp and the focus ring turns smoothly, so checking my negatives for scratches and dust is actually pleasant now. It’s compact enough to toss in my camera bag without a second thought.
