Featuring 4+ brightness levels via two optical filters and a photo enlarger capable of 3x magnification, it enables artists to sketch and enlarge photos without electricity or heat. Designed for versatility and durability, it includes a solid aluminum clamp, shatterproof optics, and a carrying bag, making it ideal for professional and aspiring artists seeking precision and speed in their creative process. ## Description Because this is not a modern electrical device, it still requires practice and skill, but can reward with great results. Please watch instructional videos at http://LUCYhelp.com to help you understand what you are buying and how it works. Once you set it up, the LUCY flex reflects an image of anything onto paper or canvas. Draw or paint over the image to quickly start your realistic masterpiece. The LUCY is only intended to help with the initial sketch, any detail or finishing is done without the tool. The technology behind the LUCY has been used by artists for hundreds of years, and the LUCY is the latest and greatest camera lucida evolution. Includes: LUCY Camera Lucida with 2 Optical Filters, micro fiber cleaning cloth, and instructions -PLUS- Photo Projector w/ lens (aka Photo Enlarger) for enlarging and copying photos. All packed in a handy carrying bag. Made in the USA. The LUCY retains all the magic of this classic device, while offering all the solutions with a larger (up to 19x27 inches from life), more stable and brighter image. You can even adjust the brightness of the image as needed. This listing also includes the Photo Projector, which will allow you to enlarge a 4x6 inch photo up to 3X larger than life (12x18 inches is maximum size of the image from a photo). You can use the LUCY if you wear glasses. But it may not work well if you wear bifocals, trifocals, or progressive lenses. Basically, a LUCY enables you to see two things at the same time laid over each other. So, you see your paper and the subject at the same time. If you have difficulty seeing near and far objects without trifocals, then when the two images are transposed over each other you will only be able to see either one or the other clearly. Review: It works - It works for me. It took a reasonable time to get used to it. It is a good helper in a creative process. Hardly a replacement for creativity and skill. For me personally, the best use for it was to: 1. Arrange the big shapes. 2. Draw some stubborn details I couldn't catch otherwise. The rest is about creative freedom. Review: Not as Good as it Seems - Clunky and cheaply made it’s basically useless. I watched videos before I bought it and it seemed a great tool. I was wrong. The vision head wouldn’t screw tight enough to the arm, the filter wouldn’t screw tight enough onto the vision head and you barely get a reflection on your paper. I played with this for hours thinking I was doing something wrong - changed the lighting, changed filters, tried both filters and still only a very slight useless reflection. Don’t waste your money on this. ## Features - DRAW BETTER FASTER: Like magic, the LUCY reflects an image of anything (including photos!)! Just draw over the image to quickly start your realistic masterpiece. Draw live objects, portraits, landscapes, or photos on paper, canvas, or any surface. Draw or paint with any medium. - LARGE ADJUSTABLE IMAGE AND VERSATILITY: Larger, more stable image (compared to traditional camera lucidas) up to 19 x 27" drawing from life and 12 x 18” when enlarging a photo. Two optical filters give you 4+ brightness levels, so you can get an optimal image in any situation. Use your LUCY flex while sitting, standing, or at an easel. - PHOTO ENLARGER AND BAG: Includes the Photo Enlarger, which allows you to enlarge photos, pictures, or small objects using your LUCY flex up to a 3x magnification. That’s blowing up a 4in x 6in photo to 12in x 18in (10.2cm x 15.2cm to 30.5cm x 45.7cm). Unlike ordinary art projectors: no need to work in the dark, no annoying shadows, no electricity, and no risk of damaging photos with a hot bulb. Also includes a handy carrying bag! - THE OLD MASTERS' SECRET TOOL REINVENTED: The Old Masters used this secret drawing tool for hundreds of years—now it's your turn to experience the magic and take your art projects to the next level! Of course, it still requires some practice and patience, but quickly rewards with amazing results. - POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS: Always wanted to learn to draw? LUCY provides instant results and ongoing learning. Love to paint but struggle with drawing? LUCY is perfect for your next painting project. A professional artist looking to work faster? LUCY flex with Photo Enlarger is the perfect addition to your studio to get your initial sketches done faster or scale up small sketches onto a larger canvas. - QUALITY USA-MADE WITH YEAR WARRANTY: Proudly built in the USA with fiberglass-infused polycarbonate, shatterproof optics, solid aluminum clamp, and durable steel flex arm.

You just need a normal well lit room. **Q: Using the photo projector, how do you adjust for a smaller (than 12x18) reflected image?** A: You can make the reflect image smaller by lowering the height of the head. We have in depth instructional videos at LUCYhelp.com **Q: Can I order just the lucy photo enlarger alone?** A: Yes, but you have to buy direct from DrawLUCY.com **Q: Is this for Left handed as well as right handed people? Is the support arm stable or subject to moving around?** A: Yes, it works for both left and right handed people, can easily switch back and forth. And yes, the flex arm is stable. But remember a camera lucida creates a virtual image, so if you move your head the image will move as well. But it's easy to keep the image lined up, and easy to line it back up if you need to take a break. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works *by A***R on June 15, 2024* It works for me. It took a reasonable time to get used to it. It is a good helper in a creative process. Hardly a replacement for creativity and skill. For me personally, the best use for it was to: 1. Arrange the big shapes. 2. Draw some stubborn details I couldn't catch otherwise. The rest is about creative freedom. ### ⭐ Not as Good as it Seems *by L***R on February 14, 2021* Clunky and cheaply made it’s basically useless. I watched videos before I bought it and it seemed a great tool. I was wrong. The vision head wouldn’t screw tight enough to the arm, the filter wouldn’t screw tight enough onto the vision head and you barely get a reflection on your paper. I played with this for hours thinking I was doing something wrong - changed the lighting, changed filters, tried both filters and still only a very slight useless reflection. Don’t waste your money on this. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Edit to my past review *by D***E on December 21, 2020* I want everyone to know that his company has the BEST Customer Service!!!
