Can I use a magnifier with this 1x scope?

you might. i dont have one. you wouldnt normally see that behind an trijicon ACOG sight that this is potraying. the ACOG is a magnified optic. this is non magnified fake. its like having a fake leupold scope with no magnification. would you throw a magnifier behind that? it might work, just look stupid i think. hope this helps.

Yes. The height of the scope is the same height of a standard magnifier, so it will work.

I couldn't find any documentation for the magnification, but I would hazard a guess at around 3x. It works well for me, I use it for paper craft.

No. The magnifier can adjust to center in the field of view of the magnifier whatever is being magnified.

I have not measured out any area to view with the scope, so I can not be certain. As the mount for this device is not particularly great I usually end up putting the plastic ring around what I intend to view & zoom in to focus. Is it possible to take 1 cm2 shots with it, likely yes though you will have to experiment with focal lengths to get the magnification & field of view that you want. This device is more of a toy than a piece of lab equipment mainly due to the iffy base & the magnification dial's placement. If something more lab grade that is what you are looking for I recommend a more typical microscope such as this one: http://www.amazon.com/iOptron-ST-80-Digital-Microscope/dp/B0032VFC84/ref=fs_patw_1 It has higher magnification, a backlight, & multiple objective lenses. I hope this was helpful.

Yes, but you would 1) Need to remove your current finder scope and mount it in the same place, 2) Leave your current finder scope and mount it to the right of it, 3) Mount it below your focuser. (This is what I would choose.)...(jmo)

no, to do what you want you would need a telescope with a computer drive and software, as others have said you can see an object thrugh the view finder but no magnification. Also, my unit is very sensitive to magnetic interference which has required me to leave my deck and go out into the yard away from the house and garage.

Oh definitely. As long as the sight image is not in a radically different spot that is not lined up with the magnifier, it should be fine. Heck, I have my set about six inches forward of my magnifier (would have to wear glasses to shoot, otherwise) and it works fine.

I think that you'll be disappointed. It's a good scope for it's intended usage, but I don't think the maximum magnification of 18x is adequate for 1,000 yard shooting. You may want to look at the Sightron SII 24x-44AO for $580 or the 36x for $650. Those prices are from OpticsPlanet and include free shipping.

I assume you mean the bifocal area which is 1 inch diameter. The diameter of the magnifying area is stated in the item description.

This is not a 'scope' as it has no targeting apparatus. It is merely a magnification device. As such, there is no way to 'zero' it because there is no need to 'zero' it. If your other optics are zeroed, this will not effect them. So, my answer is no.

I would think yes! I have this unit but also the EOtech with magnifier. The optic is at approximately the same height so I think you would be OK. The great thing about buying from the Amazon site is the easy ability to return if it doesn't work to your satisfaction! But I really think it will! Good luck!

Sorry, just noticed this question. No, I have never used a magnifier. My sight is set one slot back from fully forward and there is just enough room for my flip down rear BUS to clear it. Hope that helps.

Not sure but i dont like the scope anyways.Too much adjusting with your eyes,Its not like looking through binoculars.If your eye is not perfectly centered on the scope,its not clear.

1x means there is no magnification. This is simply a red dot. No magnification.

As far as I know, any magnifier with picatinny base should work. The height for magnifying components based on a picatinny rail is pretty standard.

Yes, this adaptor can be used with different eyepieces for different magnification shots. It is just another piece that gets added after the eyepieces.

I don't think so. I would say no since I don't see any attachment fixtures. Go to the Amazon listing and look using the magnifier. I don't see any adaptors/fixtures,nothing that a lens would attach to, do you? Final note: 50x is really getting you out there, no doubt about it, but 21x is not bad.
