P3D More on the de Wijs Easy STL Viewer
What I like the most about this viewer is this:
>5. Amazing available light gathering ability!
Not only you don't need batteries when you use this viewer but,
just like his bigger brother, the EASY viewer will adjust to the
available ambient light both in terms of intensity and color!
(No amount of fiddling with batteries and rheostats can achieve
this with an internally illuminated viewer.) If there is enough
light around for you to see what you are doing then there is
enough light to use this viewer (actually, if you point it to
the sun you can blind yourself!)
As I write this, I am pointing the viewer to the computer screen
(nice cool light) or to the 40W bulb next to the screen (wonderful
warm color). There is plenty of light for viewing slides in this
dark room.
I tend to exaggerate (yes, really!), so as I was coming back from
work today I was looking at slides with the EASY while I was driving!
I had a blast! (PLEASE, don't try this!) But you can let your spouse
or children view slides while you are driving! Or, even better,
have your spouse drive so you can view slides!!!
I just cannot believe how bright, sharp, and easy to easy to use
this little sucker is!
But, wait, there is more! Do you double to 2x2x2 format in addition
to 41x101 stereo? No problem! You can use this viewer for
horizontal 2x2x2 slides. Change of format requires disassembly
and reassembly of the viewer. But that's no problem if you plan
to have lengthy viewing sessions in either format.
I don't know about you, but I am sold! When you see me in
Grand Bay remind me and I'll pull the EASY from my camera
bag to show you!
