RIDGEFIELD, Conn.--Eschenbach Optik of America is introducing the Color ELG, an easy-to-use, economical video magnifier.

The ELG connects to a television using the video input jack and provides between 5-70x magnification. With only three buttons, it doesn’t require studying a training manual before using.

The ELG provides three different viewing options: color, black and white, and reverse polarity (white on black). The X-Y table is padded so pages don’t slide, and the unit’s simple design allows the user to view magazines, books, prescription bottles and other objects.
