can any picture be placed under the light and traced?

Yes. It's just a box--looks a little like an iPad or something. You can lay anything on it.

yes, make sure the surface is clean and the black charcoal is very strong of the paper, when you trace the picture make sure you do slow and harder.

Yes. A word of caution though, scan direct to your computer so you can see the photo. I found that about every 15 scans I had to clean the unit. If you scanned to a memory stick you would not see the lines running through the photo until way later.

Yes. Outlines and shadows can be seen thru the shade cloth, but faces and details cannot be seen.

The light box allows the manual replication of art (on paper). Instead of redrawing art models, contours to the T, we can just trace them with no hassle. Great for any type of paper (no matter how thick).

Yes choose dark setting also make sure your drawing is dark the darker the image the more carbon will transfer

Unfortunately no. Though the light is very bright, I tested this with a sheet of Arches 300lb cold press and a xerox photo and found it easier to simply draw by hand rather than use the tracing light. There is faint line detail in this, but not anything where you can clearly see like you would with less heavy paper. A side not on this, in order to conduct this test, I moved the light box on top of my drawing table in order to best represent the light, rather than mounted below the glass surface, and it was still not very clear.

The plexiglass is riveted on and you cannot slide papers beneath it. Your best bet is to use tracing paper, or plain white paper that is translucent. I have also found that having a desk lamp that can be swung over the light box as needed can really help and is quicker and easier than turing the light box on or off to see how your tracing results look as you work.

Not with the software included, no. I assume you're wanting to overlay one image onto another to spot any differences. You would need different software for this, which is probably on the market for a price.

Yes as long as it is away from any direct light shining at the project or any light above the path of the projected image. Works well in the dark.

In the corner of that picture you should have noticed the watermark that shows the photographer's name. You can find his words about how he took the picture with a flashlight and long exposure lens, not glow in the dark paint.

No. It's just to trace an existing drawing of something below your tracing sheet. It is just lights, it has no computer inside.

There are lines that you can impose on the picture and you can set those where u want. It does not give distance in feet though.

If there are were, you would see that in the viewer on your camera. There area LED lights in the box, the flash would not come into play. I have not had a problem with reflections when using glossy paper.

Yes and no. I think if you are tracing something very defined, very clear lines then, yes. Otherwise really see-through so fine details won't work. Hope that helps.

The picture size you describe would not be covered by this light. Perhaps you could use 2 lights if you want, that would cover it.

Yes, should be perfect (provided no dimension is too long) - you may need to place an object at the end to that the device is able to form an image though (e.g. place a cardboard box or similar on the ground - or stick a piece of paper on the wall so it's sticking out). Been a very handy little unit.
