magnifier
Magnifier, formerly Microsoft Magnifier, is a screen magnifier app intended for visually impaired people to use when running Microsoft Windows. When it is run, it creates a bar at the top of the screen that greatly magnifies where the mouse is. Magnifier was first included as a sample in the Active Accessibility SDK/RDK for Windows 95 and later made a standard Windows utility starting with Windows 98. Prior to Windows Vista, Magnifier could be used to magnify the screen up to 9 times its normal size. Windows Vista and later allow up to 16× magnification.
In Windows Vista, Magnifier uses WPF, which in turn uses vector images to render the content. As a result, the rendered magnified image is sharp and not pixelated. However, this is useful only for Windows Presentation Foundation applications. Non-WPF applications are still magnified the traditional way. Also, due to a change introduced in WPF 3.5 SP1, this functionality is lost if .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 is installed.
Microsoft has also released a Magnification API to allow assistive technology applications to use the Magnifier engine.
Microsoft's Windows 7 operating system includes a significantly improved version of Magnifier. It features full-screen magnification which allows a user to pan around the screen at up to 16× magnification.
However, the full screen feature has also been criticized due to its incompatibility with the high contrast color schemes found in the Windows 7 beta release. This issue remains in the final Windows 7 release. Besides this, when the magnifier zooms, the text will appear blurry or pixelated because it is not being directly rendered at the larger size; instead, the smaller sized rendering is being enlarged as a raster image. ClearType sub-pixel anti-aliasing is also magnified as a result of this, so if ClearType is active, the magnified text may appear to have unexpected colors at the edges of non-horizontal lines. Some third party magnification software compensates for this effect by applying scaling filters to the enlarged image.
The magnifier also features a lens mode similar to that found in the existing version of the software. Lens mode is improved, however, as now the magnifying window will follow the cursor around the screen rather than remain in a fixed position. Finally the magnifier is much easier to access by using the Windows key and +/- to control the zoom level without the need to start the application first. Pressing the Win+Esc combination will exit the magnifier.
Eotech G43 magnifier in excellent condition, almost like new except it’s been mounted and have some scuffs from the safe. Otherwise it’s been a safe queen.
Like new, includes boxes. Looking to sell this setup as a complete package. I bought the G33 sans the STS mount so it has to go with the Unity Fast mount. Not currently interested in selling any parts of this setup piece meal. It will be sold or traded as a bundle. With that being said, I am...

Selling my gen 2 Vortex AMG UH-1 and 3X magnifier as a combo. Ran the gen 1 for a long time and sent it in for a warranty claim. Got sent back these two as an exchange. Mounted and zero'd on my Bcm but decided to go a different route now. These are basically brand new in the boxes.
I've got the FDE Eotech G45 5x magnifier with a Unity FAST Omni Mount. I would like to try and trade for the same thing in black. I'd be okay with a G43 as well. My set-up is in like new condition and I expect yours to be as well.

in very good condition glass is clean and clear. Was going to use it with my T-2/LEAP 01 but i rarely shoot my 11.5 past 100 yards so I don't really need it. I have the box for the mount but not the magnifier.

Brand new in the original box. I ordered this one and then ended up taking a used one on trade.
$280, willing to ship.
Only trade would be for a Cloud Defensive Rein weapon light.
I've had these for around a year. Both are in good condition, with no issues. They have mostly sat in my safe, minus a few trips to the flat range. Both come with original cases and documentation. The G33 comes with both riser heights. I have misplaced the allen key for the 512 so that won't be...
