What is CANDY5 HD  Ⅱ? 

CANDY5 HD Ⅱ is a handheld electronic video magnifier 

that helps people with low vision to read printed materials 
like  personal  mail,  magazines,  newspapers,  restaurant 
menus, product catalogs, medicine bottles, grocery items 
and much more. 

In  addition  to  magnifying,  CANDY5  HD  Ⅱ  can  change 

the  text  and  background  color  to  enhance  the  image 
contrast  for  a  more  comfortable  reading.  You  can  select 
among 5 color modes. 

The continuous digital zoom magnification feature allows 

you  to  change  the  magnification  level  from  1.0x  to  22x. 
The Auto Focus feature helps to keep a sharp image while 
moving the camera across the line of print. 

CANDY5  HD  Ⅱ’s  ergonomic  three-position  handle  is 

designed to be held comfortably by either right-handed or 
left-handed users. Hold the handle in the center position or 
at a 45-degree angle.
