Compact 5 HD

The first handheld video magnifier
offering superior images in high definition.

Experience a revolutionary breakthrough in electronic handheld low vision technology with the
Optelec Compact 5 HD.

In high definition, you can now read from glossy magazines, letters, displays and price tags.

Lightweight, always in focus and easy to use, the Compact 5 HD is the first true replacement of the traditional optical magnifier that will grow with your needs with the lowest and widest magnification range from 1.5 to 18 times zoom.

Ergonomic design

Use the Optelec Compact 5 HD in two ergonomic positions. Open the Compact 5 HD for a perfect reading angle and move smoothly across newspapers and magazines (pictured below left). Alternatively, close the Compact 5 HD (pictured below right) for use on-the-go, spot reading and distance viewing (up to 1.2 metres).

Small, lightweight and easy to use

The Compact 5 HD is small and light enough to fit easily in your pocket and features a 5-inch widescreen. The buttons are easy to see and operate. To meet your specific needs, each Compact 5 HD setting can be customized and saved using the special large icon menu as illustrated (below right).

Using the latest high definition camera, the Compact 5 HD offers so much more than standard handheld video magnifiers:

• 4 times the depth of field
• 3 times more resolution
• Auto-focus camera offering superior image quality at every magnification level
• 16 high contrast semi-colour combinations for easier reading

Enjoy a greater overview for easy orientation
