anish Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 hey all, i've been reading a lot of the posts regarding loupes for viewing 35mm slides. i have a lot of info, but before buying, i'd like to see them for myself. what's a good place near pasadena/arcadia where i can find a good selection of loupes? thanks. -Anish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mph Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 I don't know for sure, but the Samy's branch in Pasadena (on Walnut near Fair Oaks) is probably a good bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
del_gray Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 Samy's in Pasadena does have a few nice loupes, but not a great selection. Their downtown store has many, many more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qiang_lin Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 The camera store on Lake Ave called "Mac Lee's Camera" (if my memory is correct) may have some. It is on the east of Macy's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kam_kozan Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 When you check them out, compare them with a 50mm or 85mm lens (used as a loop, of course). I find the lenses much brighter, sharper, and even more comfortable than a loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
