Artograph EZ Tracer® Opaque Art Projector for Wall or Canvas Image Reproduction - Light Bulb Not Included

Many decades ago in the 60's and early 70's I used one of these tracers and they used a simple bulb and worked great. After many years it stopped working and never saw another one like it until now . It is designed a little different but works identical as they use to They recommend a specific bulb and when using that bulb this tracer works flawlessly and is very bright and clear . I have a larger projector but using it can be difficult because it is large This Tracer is easy to use and can be used just about anywhere . If it lasts as long as the old one I had decades ago, it is worth every penny If I remember correct the one years ago was bought for about $10 dollars and that seemed like a lot back then compared to todays prices Recommend this tracing projector for any artist and for any craft work

This is a simple enlargement projector for small pictures. It has a very small area that can be set on whatever one wants to enlarge, but has limited use if doing a mural or large painting. It is portable and light weight. It uses a high lumen lightbulb, not included. The lightbulb doesn't heat up paper or a book it is set on for the length of time it takes to trace onto whatever surface. It does what I bought it for, and the price was reasonable.

I bought this for my daughter to enlarge her drawings (it was on her wish list). I actually had her help me to use it first (shame on me)! It worked very well for a poster I was making. Love it and happy we purchased it! Disadvantages... Make sure to secure the medium you are transferring to otherwise the image gets distorted. The view box is roughly 4"x6" (estimating from memory) and if you are going from a larger image, you will have to move it-so you have to be careful to avoid distorting the final image. The enlarger can get hot. Finally, when transferring the image, your hand can shadow where you need to trace. Overall, it does the job pretty easy!

I read the reviews and knew that this unit had some issues. I was hoping that a bright bulb would really help... it did a bit. It is hard to get a good focus on anything that does not have great contrast and clarity. A coloring book image would probably work well. A photograph, not so much. I was an art teacher for years and had a big opaque projector that was wonderful. I often wonder what ever happened to it. I have been unable to find one that worked as well.

Great little projector works better than my big one. Love it . Picture quality was great and shows up in color too. So easy to use and well worth the money. I like making plywood characters for our driveway and they all came out fantastic with this little viewer.

This is a complete waste of money. It doesn't work at all. At first I thought I needed to shut the window blinds and make it more dark. Nope, that wasn't it. The image is blurry and when you go to pull out the lens, it can get really lose and even fall off. Re-threading it is next to impossible. I almost couldn't get it back on. Then there is the lens on the underside. Really? You have to move your image from the bottom in tiny movements. Now you might be thinking, but the product description said this. Yes and no. The actually size of the opening is ludicrous. The tiny increment movements only to have to bring it into focus time and time is ridiculous. Try teaching 30 antsy elementary students while you try to bring this thing into focus several times in one class period. Just forego it, and do your drawings on your white board or chalkboard. Another thing: it is super lightweight and cheap. And you will be hard-pressed to find the proper lightbulb. Like, go to at least 4 different stores to find one that a) will fit, b) produce the right amount of light (no amount is enough with this piece of rubbish), and c) needs to be LED. Once you have chased all over the city for the correct lightbulb, you will go to use it, and find that it is a scam. I'd return it in a second (hey, I thought there was a 1-year warranty), but apparently the seller took the Return option down. Unbelievable!

Cheap is cheap ,but what else is there thats not expensive?

I bought this to project an image from a small photograph to a canvas for the purpose of making an outline for a painting. The projected image is hard to focus and line up with the canvas. The movement of the lens in and out is sloppy and the slightest vibration or bump and you start all over. It might be ok for an under 5-year-old to copy a simple line drawing with an adult help to set it up. I don't think it's worth any more than 20 dollars at the most.

Génial

Finally got the Artograph. Hurrah. I got it for my Birthday. I have been waiting for so long. Just ask for the recommended light bulb. It works perfectly.

Purtroppo l'articolo è arrivato con la scatola leggermente schiacciata agli angoli, ma poco importa perchè all'interno era tutto ok, tutto intatto...ma la presa era quella per gli stati uniti e non europea, ho segnalato il problema al venditore che praticamente mi ha risposto con un messaggio standard automatico che non prendeva nemmeno in considerazione il mio problema... quindi ho dovuto comprare a parte un adattatore per poterlo almeno provare. La luce è molto bassa, pur seguendo le indicazioni di potenza richieste dalle istruzioni, risultato le immagini si vedono sul muro ma molto leggere e solo se si spengono completamente le luci...il che rende complicato lavorare poi il muro...in sostanza non era quel che cercavo e che mi aspettavo. Ho provato a fare il reso ma le spese di spedizione ma mi è stata prima data la solita risposta automatica, poi finalmente mi hanno risposto che potevo fare il reso ma a spese mie, per quanto riguarda la spedizione...inutile dire altissime....non bene

A Amazon, mais uma vez, confirma a seriedade com que trata o seu cliente. Gostei muito dessa compra. Parabéns à equipe e todos os envolvidos nesse atendimento. :)

Aspect "jouet", système de mise au point du même type, mais fonctionne assez bien pour l’usage prévu, (agrandir silhouettes de girouettes). Appareil fourni sans ampoule. En résumé, un peu cher pour un appareil rudimentaire en plastique, mais il fait le job.
