Three Ways to Magnify
The ONYX Deskset models offer three distinct views: distance view, document view, and self view.
In distance view, even objects from across large rooms or auditoriums can be seen in sharp focus.
Document view gives you the ability to magnify items such as reading materials, daily business tasks, classroom assignments, product labels, and craft projects.
With self view, you get a magnified true mirror image close up. Making it even easier to use, the camera remembers its settings in each position so you can switch back and forth between viewing modes without refocusing or otherwise readjusting the camera.
Now with a rolling carrying case! ONYX Deskset models include a unique rolling carrying case with document pockets, zippered compartment for the power supply and remote control, and top-mounted zipper for placing the entire ONYX Deskset inside. Carry by two handles, or wheel your ONYX Deskset behind you with the telescoping handle.
