I have a 10x mirror now and was wondering if it is worth paying for a 15x? Is the difference really worth paying for? Thanks

I went from a 10X to a !5X because I liked the look of this mirror. I would say it's not necessary but I am very happy with this mirror purchase because it has a very stable base.

If I had money, I would get the Combat+ for looks. I haven't tried the Combat+ But I do not believe they are twice as good. I would get the Transform. These are great!!!

I own both lenses for the last three months. Initially had the 17-40mm on my XSi but after a couple weeks of frequent use of my camera i switched to the 10-22mm. Found the lense according to pics i was taking to be of more use to me than the 17-40mm. I guess what Bauista said is right, it all depends if you will go full frame in the future or not!!! Also the type of pictures you are taking is an important factor!! Both lenses are great but i think that 10-22mm is a bit ahead of the 17-40mm especially when you have a 1.6crop camera.Their prices vary, i bought through time both my lenses around $650!!!

Hi Adam. these are amazing mirrors, so much so I purchased another for my rental car. Some vehicles have better vision than others but overall i would rate them very highly.Have tried the cheaper ones and threw them away after using the All View in my wife's car. Many thanks

I personally would not go more powerful than 15x ... very hard to keep an object in view hand held at 20x. Even these are pretty 'jumpy' - even a small movement causes your target to be lost. Helps to have a tripod, even at this power.

No distortion on the standard mirror side but in my opinion whenever magnifying there is a visual adjustment... I mean really you tend to focus on say an eyebrow or other specific area with the magnification side. You will not see your entire face without distortion on the magnification side with the x10 power this mirror has but you will clearly see center of face (might not see jaw line , forehead unless you refocus on those areas) when sitting close to the magnify side of the mirror. Hope that makes sence and helps.

I checked my other mirror which is only 10x. It appears the customer may be correct about 5X magnification. When I compare the the two, my image in the Jerdon is smaller, but still large enough to do some very good tweezing. It could be that the smaller built-in mirror provides 10x magnification, I'm not sure. It's certainly enough for up close needs. Since it swivels, you can have the magnification at the top or the bottom for your own personal comfort. It is a good mirror & built well. I'm glad I purchased it. I tweeze every day & am a perfectionist about how I look. I can't go a single day without tweezing (unfortunately). I checked my other mirror which is only 10x.

I did not experience any distortion on the 1x side of the mirror. I should mention I wear glasses and that may make a difference. But all-in-all, I would purchase this mirror again. I am very pleased with its function.

I have both and I notice a big difference in both transfer speed as well as loading speeds. Get the 1000x

Yes and very well IF you have a 2" to 1.25" lens adapter. The advantage you will have is that higher magnification requires more light and your 10" mirror gathers lots of light. Good luck and have lots of fun.

Always 7X but beware, it is very hard to get your eye in the right spot to actually use it. The lower power ones might be easier, but I had to return mine.

I have both and I wouldn't change the D600 for the X-T1 for serious, payed or critical work. Although it's my opinion for the photography I do... maybe for you is different. I would suggest renting one for a week or so, try it extensively and come to a decision. Cheers.

In my opinion you need a better range of optics. There is very little light gathering ability difference between x40 and x42. I would recommend the 8x40 and 10x50's. I know, the 10x50 are heavier but they also are better in low light. You never know when you are going to see something that is a once-in a lifetime occurence. I think it is worth the weight.

15x is very very strong. you would only use it to see up very close like to pluck hairs - you would not use it to apply make up for example unless you have very bad eyesight. I would recommend that you go to Bed Bath and Beyond or another store and look in the mirrors there to experience the different magnifications and then order the product with the magnification level that you need from Amazon.

Well I have not noticed that as an issue after couple hundred miles of city & urban road use. I find it offers a nice sharp view, fine depth & width perception. I would suggest reading all the reviews on this mirror and see if maybe someone see's it as an issue. For me, I'm 100% happy with it.

The G15's fast lens can get an equivalent image in one-third of the ambient light, based on the G12's f/2.8 lens versus the G15's f/1.8 lens. The G15 has an additional 2 megapixels on its sensor, which would result in a slight improvement in image quality. That said, for your application, you're unlikely to notice a major improvement in image quality except for cases where you are shooting in low light and not using the flash. Also be aware that unlike the G12, the G15 does not have the flip-out/tilting rear display panel. That's actually the reason I bought the G15, because there is no chance that I'll snap it off. The built in display also reduces the depth of the camera body slightly. If you want the tilt-out display, then last year's G1X model would be your current upgrade path from the G12. I don't know if next year's model will feature the return of the tilt-out display; some buyers obviously like it, and some don't.

My mirror has no distortion. My main use is for brow shaping and it works great. Due to the magnification sometimes my eyes need to focus but once they do the reflection is perfectly clear.
