Overview

Thank you for purchasing Ridge Pro Plus.
Ridge Pro Plus is a compact video magnifier that can magnify an object from two to 
12 times its size and is ideal for latent print examination as well as reviewing many 
types of evidence. Its compact size and large screen make it easier to view than a 
standard loupe or magnifier, and allows you to freeze and save the images for review.
